    I think if I was going to assemble one of those Pre milled Lincoln log cabin kits, I would carry it 1 step further and add glue to the groves
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    I saw a similar construction in New Zealand. Only the "logs" were laminated from smaller planks.

    If you had a shaper and a similar profile cutter you could make your own joints. It would be a lot of work.
