Beautiful workmanship

My First thought: “That’s rad.” My second thought: “It must get really fucking cold there if they need joins this tight.”

Wow! I would love to see how they formed those joints!

Hurts my head thinking how that comes together.

This is incredible! Happen to know how old-ish?

Hard to tell. Some of those houses are centuries old, but some fall apart in decades.

I cannot see how this goes together
rednecksciencegeek
It's not put together like a dovetail joint. The logs are just stacked alternating from side to side.
petrolhead1987
Not quite, look closely. Each individual log contains at least two joins in it.
UncleMeaty
Some new craftsmanship from Slovenia.
Puolitettupuolituttu
Draw me like one of those Italian art restoration projects.

How does the water run away from joints like that?
DerbyDad03
It doesn't run away. It stands there and stares in wonderment.
SaturnineCult
There shouldn't be water in there, you make roof on top of that.
LovelyMover
This is impossible...Slovenia maybe a lie too

How does that get built?
HeatproofNut
With your hands.
OwlBeReady
It would be done with a pre cut stencile the exact pattern does not matter as long as you use the same stencile each time.
Beanyoneyk

slamorama
Look close at the end grains. Each carving is one log. Easy to stack them vertically.

I think you maybe skipped a few steps between that and the finished product...

The joints are tapered
kookyabird
Stacked. These are separate logs put together, not two boards joined.
angryscreechingnoise
the cuts are diagonal.
welluhwhatdoyouwantmetosay
Like a log cabin with extra steps..
usernamemustbe4characterslonng
The old “how can we make this harder on ourselves”
scarloclorne
Yeah it’s built by stacking the joints.
AllysiaAiua
Ohhhhh, thanks. That's suddenly stupidly obvious
SmoeAhsolse
The seems are not eat to see at first glance. It may be that there's so much "visual noise" from the wood grain that we filter out them out.

Built in layers. Sliding joinery wouldn't work in this case.
innagaddavidababy
Thank you. I was thinking magic.
jhsuber
This makes more sense than the “boil the wood and compress it” method they used for that nail in the middle trick
Tierannix
Couldnt it also (although unlikely) be built by using diagonal sliding pieces?
Puolitettupuolituttu
If you want to build two free-standing walls first and then glide them together, sure, I guess. The fourth wall will be tricky though.
Darjanator
That's what I'm thinking. The diagonals are perpendicular to the plane of the image.

SidewalkWidflower
Nope, sorry, I don't get it. Please explain to a loghead?
JadeNB1729
Soak it in wood.
artdecoasfuck
These are stacked like life-sized Lincoln Logs with square-sides. The fancy/complex cuts where they notch-together are cool, but are (1/2)
HappyLookouuut
You very well may be correct, but I was thinking the “frilly” parts maybe served the purpose of limiting movement due to natural expansion/
artdecoasfuck
simple in being essentially a frilly straight-down Lego connection rather than some crazy "impossible dovetail" type of joinery. Still (2/3)
artdecoasfuck
some mad craftsmanship is probably involved in cutting that frilly Lego joint. (3/3)
Ghlargh
These shapes cannot be slid in from the sides, but the individual logs can be stacked from the bottom up.
AisforApple
Is the joint shaped like this?
monstaguts
aye, it checks out cap'n.

Guy. Did you, did you just make this??

Thank you, that was hurting my brain.

blackzver
This looks plausible. Thanks for taking the time and drawing it!
Roqinn
That's the way it appears in the pic. I can't see them sliding together. They would have had to have been placed 1 on top of the other.
TheLastNalbinder
Like Lincoln logs
Roqinn
Just like those!
DuckSick
You could 3d print Lincoln logs .... dude....
petrolhead1987
Not quite, look closely. You have assumed that each join is an individual piece of wood, the pieces have multiple joins on them.
AisforApple
Not sure what you mean. The rings in the end grain show that each lap is a new log.
petrolhead1987
Never noticed that, I apologise. I was trying to look for dividing lines along the sides, and didn't even notice the rings.
driyon
If that's the case wouldn't it make more sense for the spikes/ flat edges to face the other direction.
Kapi23
They aren't perpendicular to each other, so you can slide them into position
LordLEFTY
Did you make this render just for the question? Bruh...
FisterMantastic
I honestly hope so.
AisforApple
It's just a screencap, but yeah. I do 3D stuff for a living so it's not as big an effort as it might seem.

"not a big effort"... Dude... For me, typing this reply is a big effort...

For personal, I'm a Blender heretic, with PS and substance for textures. For work, it's a Maya pipeline.

cool, i've learning cinema4d, foking crazy program
DuckSick
Thank you for that image, it solved the problem my brain has been having with this for like a month. How did they cut it tho? Chisel??
SpawnLegacy
3d printer probably.
89tulkas
Archaeologists have found some remarkably well preserved medieval Slovenian 3D printers.
Warchild1987
Sawmills as far back as the late 1700s (ish? I'm not an historian) would cut these joineries with end mill bits. Belt driven tools are old.
