Really love the look of Kentucky Lumber Co's stuff down in So Western Ky . Looking for flooring and kitchen cabinets/ custom kitchen decor . Or reclaimed Bourbon barrel decor . Any suggestions ?

Kentucky Lumber Company sucks, ergo, your Lincoln Log shack will also suck.

If you are really near Manitou, KY, drive over to Crawford Lane. There is a log cabin there. Ask them where they got their furnishings. Good luck.

Looks too far away for me to help honestly. Have a few log cabin builders in Taylorsville and my FIL is a customer cabinet maker but that seems farther than he is willing to bid.

Sorry man, good luck

It’s on Hwy 41 between Madisonville and Nebo. They even have a historical marker on the side of the road. I though you were from there. Instead, you’re on the other gd end of the state.

For bourbon barrel creations, check out Cody Angel/ Lindsey Horseman site. They make some beautiful furniture. Cody can create pieces for you.

Guys I’m thinking of building a hut out of mud, pitch or adobe. Any ideas ?

Try one of these poop homes.

"What housing material repels mosquitos, makes a stable foundation against natural disasters, acts like a thermal insulator and is the best natural disinfectant? You guessed it, poop! It’s a mood booster too. Oh, and using poop makes home construction so much more environmentally sustainable."

The Maasai’s loaf-shaped, Inkajijik (homes) are made of mud, sticks, grass, cow dung and cow urine. This combo repels mosquitos and keep dwellers cool.



Now protected historical sites, these conical mud and dung homes are structurally sound with some dating back to biblical times.

Joined a gym and been working out every chance I get. Working out and meal prepping took all my free time.
