The Foundation
Scott Eden’s story is one of true inspiration and passion for log home building. He started his journey by building his own private log home sanctuary in the remote woods of Wisconsin. As he attended various log home shows, he began to notice a common problem among log home owners: unsightly and industrial-looking settling jacks.
Scott saw a need for a cover to hide these settling jacks and began to think of creative ways to add aesthetics to log homes. This is when he had his breakthrough moment. He decided to use a beautiful copper metal cover to conceal the settling jacks, adding a touch of elegance and uniqueness to log homes.
Soon after, Scott caught the attention of Scott Sashco, the founder of Sashco Log Home Maintenance Products. Sashco had noticed the copper covers and asked him if he could create an “upside-down” ashtray to cover the ends of logs. Without hesitation, Scott said “of course” and got to work.
Scott’s innovative idea was the start of Nortek Copper Works log cabin caps that you see today. These caps not only protect logs from moisture and rot, but also add a touch of beauty and uniqueness to log homes. Scott’s passion for log homes and dedication to finding creative solutions to common problems has made him a true pioneer in the log home industry.
Today, Nortek Copper Works offers a wide range of log cabin products that make log home maintenance easier and more manageable for homeowners. Their copper caps, settling jacks, jack covers, kick plates, and round caps have become trusted solutions for log home owners all across the country.
