You can see this restoration project at the point of completion. Notice (compared to week 6) the log replacements (extending out from the horizontal wall) and the chinking that has been applied to the vertical joint to ensure the termination of water and air infiltration.

In 1981 Perma-Chink Systems (PCS) introduced flexible chinking to the log home industry to replace what was the standard at the time - concrete mortar. This revolutionary product, Perma-Chink Log Home Chinking, looked like authentic mortar but stretched and flexed to accommodate log movement while maintaining a tight seal for the life of the house.
