I wonder if there are any free videos with people building log cabins and showing how they do it. I already have some ebooks, but nothing that properly explains how to prepare the logs, how to notch them... all important step-by-step instructions for newbies like me.
If there are some videos or presentations showing how its done, I would like to see them. Thanks in advance!

Peelinglogs.blogspot.com shows my cabin construction from building the walls in a field near my house, through transporting the walls and finishing our cabin up north.
Here is a post on how to cut a notch:

To understand building, you will likely need to purchase a book or two (or videos) that describes the technique you plan to use.

Thanks a lot for your help, fpw!
I would gladly buy some DVD set with instructions if that were possible. My country has issues with paypal all the time so online shopping is impossible.
Your links helped me greatly.
