I worked for a plumber one summer, and one job we had was doing one of these "kit" log cabins. It was a big one, probably 3000 sq ft, 2 story, nice looking place. The general contractor told my boss how much it cost as it stood when we got there, with just the exterior walls, roof, and interior stud walls framed. There were no lights, ceilings, doors, kitchen cabinets, nothing done inside. It was up to about $250,000 at that point....
