The front and back sides were built with full log ends. The sides went between the front and back with straight ends. Then he took a strip of balsa, glued a cardstock strip to the edge, then carved in log ends on the strip. Finally, he glued these phony log ends to the front and back, giving the impression they were continuations of the sides.
