Log homes are part of the American tradition and have always been admired. But, there are problems with log homes. They are difficult to wire and plumb. They shift and settle, and they are expensive.

It was within this context that Ron Berge and his son, Steve, began experimenting with ways to achieve an authentic log exterior that could be applied with the ease of ordinary wood siding.
