I hated all the “take the class” posts. I’m cheap and have been around construction most of my life. Figured I could build a log home without the class but after 232453234 questions, I finally decided to splurge on a trip to Vegas for the WIFE to take the class. I was just along for the ride.
I probably could have built a log home without the class. The most expensive, crooked, poorly done, never get anything finished log home ever built. I figure the class has saved me $50,000 out of the gate and we haven’t even inked the land deal yet. It has also taught me a TON of new ideas about construction, moving heavy stuff, and safety. I actually used some techniques from class today installing a big heavy beam in a house we are renovating.
So, if you are worried about the class being a rip off, its not. Worth every penny.

Great class. The information on how we can build our house inexpensively will vastly improve our financial situation. Hope you feel great about helping (semi-) retirees live simply and without financial worry. Can’t thank you enough.

Thank you — for turning every tall tree I see into a potential ridge pole.
The class exceeded my expectations. As a trainer myself I know first hand what it takes to put something like this on ( I have even taught classes in Vegas). Very well done. Even with a Vegas style 3 hours sleep between day one and day two the course content was outstanding and kept you awake and on your toes all day.
The answer to the question “how can you cover all this in just two days ?” Is “turn up and find out!”
We are also working on sending the remaining two in our party to the next workshop.
Thanks again guys.

I really enjoyed the class, it was as advertised and all that I expected and more. I did my research before attending and I was really impressed. I have the confidence that I can build a log home.

Awesome class, Ellsworth and Steve. Connie and I are more excited and encouraged than ever about building our very own log home. Thanks for sharing all the information. Very thoroughly thought out building system. We look forward to one day sharing our log home pictures with our new “family”.
Many thanks,
Mike and Connie

Great class. It was all I’d hoped for and more. I know now that I have 100% of the knowledge necessary to build my own place. And if I should have any questions down the line, I know the answer is available either in my LHBA class workbook or on the LHBA forums. Highly Recommended!

I have attended many informational conferences over the last 30 years, and felt very satisfied for the price I paid, in lieu of what I received in information and ongoing support. I felt like we received honest, timely, and specific information and support, that left me feeling very confident that this is highly attainable. Thank You Steve and Ellsworth for allowing me to attend at the last minute, and sharing your combined experience and knowledge with us.

Thanks for a great class – I did not get a chance to thank you guys in person, but I found the class informative and certainly well worth the trip from Switzerland. Now I just need to convince my wife to attend one in future!

REALLY enjoyed the class. I hate Las Vegas however. That city’s a perfect example of what I’m trying to get away from and why I want to live in a log home in a small mountain community. It was nice not to have to rent a car to get to class though and I did partake of the $7 steak dinner at Ellis Island (what a deal!) Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to attend. Really looking forward to being a member!

I really enjoyed the class. I am eagerly awaiting the day when i can apply the knowledge i learned in class. Thank you for coming to Vegas. The total trip cost me $40 dollars in gas and a few bucks for lunches. I will read the entire members section and then ask questions if all of them aren’t answered.LOL Once again thanks and I will keep all posted on my progress.

The class was very well taught and you guys paced everything well. I enjoyed it and am now feeling ready to start building my fishing cabin in Alaska (and yes, I’ll definitely build square!)
Thanks,
