B. Allan Mackie has spent the last several years creating his own 9-part series of information-packed instructional videos designed for the serious builder. Narrated by BAM himself, they contain everything you need to know to construct your own state-of-the-art log buildings. They are available individually and as a set in both European (PAL) and North American formats. They are currently being translated into Japanese, Korean, and German.
