Corner Mounting

The logs are held in place by 10" lag bolts. I used three bolts per log. The holes for the bolts were pre-drilled and a larger hole accommodated the socket wrench needed to tighten the bolt. I drilled the access hole approximately the same size as the dowel I would use to plug the hole. After tightening the lag bolts, I smeared yellow carpenter's glue on the inside of the hole and on the plug and hammered the plug into the hole.
After the glue dried, I used a Japanese "flush cut" hand saw to remove the waste from the plug. If you do this properly, only a small amount of sanding will be necessary.
