2 J im B arna L og & Jim Barna Log and Timber Homes is one of the largest and most innovative log home manufacturers in the United States. Our founder Jim Barna shaped the landscape of today s log home market. More than thirty-five years ago, he started the trend of milling the logs to specific, uniform tolerances and joining them together with interlocking saddle-notch corners and tongue-and-groove walls to keep the structures weather-tight and the logs straight. Since then, Jim Barna Log and Timber Homes has developed multiple log systems that provide innovation, integrity and ease of construction. Graded logs, kiln drying, pre-cutting, profiled corner notches, log adhesive and lag-screw assembly make Jim Barna Log and Timber Homes substantially stronger and more energy-efficient than many other log walls on the market. The result is a home that will remain comfortable and beautiful for generations.

6 Jim Barna Log & Tim Standard Log and Timber Package C h o o s e T h e Va l u e Pa c k e d M a t e r i a l s Pa c k a g e That is Right for You. Log home manufacturers produce packages of materials, some include only the logs, while others include everything you will need. This difference is a major factor in cost comparisons. Jim Barna Log and Timber Home provides the materials your construction crew will need to build your log home through dry-in construction and several package options to fit your budget and construction expertise. Jim Barna Log and Timber Homes provides a wide variety of product options, which currently consist of nine log systems, in as many as four log species, three different types of windows and doors, uncut and pre-cut rafter and beam systems, and two dry-in package options. For presentation purposes, two packages are defined... Standard Log and Timber Package and Premium Log and Timber Package. However, many other combinations of materials and package options are available.
