FarmerJoe Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I want to build a log cabin using logs made from cement or other materials besides wood. I have seen them used for decoration but not for building an entire house. Any suggestions as to where I can purchase them? And if you have any comments about this idea I would like to here them. Also, where can I find the siding that looks like wood but is made from plastic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaphas Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I think you are talking about shera building materials, we built a wooden house using it a couple of years ago. Really happy with the finished house. You can buy the planks for most big building suppliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunta71 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) Can't help you much with the fake stuff but after building, find someone who works with stucco, take him to the place that molds the cement table and stools,etc Now that I've figured out how to attach photos. I'll send a couple more..some stairs astair landing and a soapstone woodstove along with my famous rockworkFAP_No14a.pdf Edited February 23, 2009 by bunta71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerJoe Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 I'm in Chiangmai. So if you know of any places here, that would be of great help. I will visit the table and chair makers. Good idea. Is Shera a store or the name of the material? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boksida Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Shera is a trade name for the fibre cement siding. Have you looked at this site for the complete deal imported from Japan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
