Material with meaning
Start with the cedar.
Make the home your own.
Moosehead’s cedar log packages pair exposed wood character with a range of layouts and finish choices. Big Twig helps you compare designs, discuss modifications, and understand which materials belong in your quote.
Eligible log packages include free custom design and planning. Eligibility, engineering requirements, and any additional services are confirmed for your project before you proceed.
A package is more than a picture.
Moosehead’s published standard-package reference groups components from the floor structure through the exterior log structure, interior framing, roof, windows, doors, stairs, and railings. Options and substitutions change that list.
Your Big Twig quote establishes your actual inclusions. Confirm log profile, insulation assembly, roof system, windows, doors, finishes, freight, and engineering together. A photograph may show customized options.

Review the material categories before you compare quotes.
These categories summarize Moosehead’s published standard cedar package. They are a conversation starter, not a substitute for the exact materials, allowances, engineering, delivery, and exclusions in your Big Twig quote.
Exterior cedar structure
The published reference identifies white-cedar wall logs, sealing materials, splines and fasteners, opening bucks, specified siding details, and support posts as needed.
Interior and loft framing
Interior partition framing, paneling and trim, ceiling joists, and loft-flooring components are listed for the applicable design.
Roof assembly
The reference lists pre-cut roof members, roof decking, insulation, ventilation strapping, roof sheathing, and specified roofing components; upgrades and alternatives are available.
Windows and doors
Published package categories include specified windows, exterior and interior doors, and associated interior-pine and exterior-cedar trim.
Stairs, rails, and porch details
Applicable stairs, railings, and cedar porch posts are identified in the published reference and should be confirmed against your specific plan.
Cedar log profiles
Let the profile set the character.
Moosehead offers round and square cedar-log styles in multiple sizes. The visual profile, finish, corners, insulation approach, and the spaces where exposed log is used can all be considered together as your package is designed.
Explore Moosehead log styles and customizationD-log, flat, and chink styles
Available in selected sizes for a more rounded, tailored, or traditional chink-line expression.
Bevel, clapboard, and Swedish cope
Moosehead identifies these as profile choices with specific offered dimensions; Swedish cope uses an 8-inch round profile.
Round and D-log finishes
Smooth, milled, or rustic hand-hewn finishes are listed for round and D-log profiles.
Half-log siding
For selected interior spaces, half-log siding over an insulation assembly can create a full-round appearance; confirm applicability in the quote.
