I still play with Lincoln Logs when the kids will let me. The plastic roof pieces they have now are way better than those green slats I had that always gave me splinters.
Couldn't get any Jefferson Davis Logs?
I did make one SUPERCOACH Log. Does that count?
Is that what the
Time Magazine article is all about?
This wasn't really newsworthy. I needed one of those big ones that have 4 notches (3 sections). The only way to get one is to spend about $25 on a specific set that has exactly 1 in it, with about a hundred of those little bitty ones. Most sets don't have any of them at all. I looked on their web site to see if you could buy individual logs, but they don't do that evidently.
You need some big 4 notchers if you are going to build the Ponderosa. Those little two room shacks that you can build with most sets are for hillbillies. I never did stain it, otherwise you wouldn't even know it was a home made one.
