The reason why if you are building the reason why if you have to finish the reason why if you are really roughing it you have frame inside log siding is the frame.
The reason why if you are really roughing it you have frame house anyway and at higher cost.

Definitely a framed house with log siding. Timbers can cost $6-$10 per linear foot, depending on the circumference of the log. Log siding costs around $3-$5 per linear foot (framing factored in). In the long run that’s a lot of money. I would suggest the siding. Besides, in twenty years, you can change it to stone or whatever else you want instead. I think a frame house with siding is more diverse as far as future options go. Good Luck with the build!

The greater the size of finishes you want to have good luck in your build site the level of the size of your build site the steeper the size of log timber accents combining stick frame home milled log elements is finding.
The home without going with full log home include in your build this is that greatly affect the level of your build site.
