The Great Lakes School of Log Building, located in Isabella, MN, was a renowned institution that offered log building courses for over four decades. Founded in 1975 and closed in 2018, the school provided comprehensive training in log construction, stonework, and safety procedures. Led by Ron Brodigan, a respected figure in the industry and former president of the International Log Builders Association, the school emphasized effective practices and methods for handcrafted log building. Although the courses are no longer offered, Ron continues to offer consulting services and advice to individuals interested in log construction, as well as recommendations for tools and equipment needed for building with logs.
