There’s a very high chance you’re have lots left over when you’ve finished your log cabin, there’s often a spare log, roof boards, spare floor boards and packing pieces.
This is all high quality spruce and it’s a shame to throw it away, there’s plenty you can do with the leftovers from your log cabin.
Here’s some inspiration from some of our customers who kindly sent in pictures, read the images caption/description for more information on them:

It’s truly amazing what people can produce with spare logs – Take this bar top for example, made from a spare roof purlin, and looks astonishing with the addition of lighting.
