I always wanted to use this method to build a small cabin, much easier than lifting logs









Rather than the middle board being solid, couldn't you achieve the same result with a vertical 2x6? Spaced at 24" on center? Alternate the layout with the board above so you have roughly 12" on center stability when fastened. Fill the void with insulating foam.

Probably could, I think the cost of the insulating foam to fill all those voids would be a hell of a lot more than full wood though.
