After years of research and looking at numerous cabin builders, we decided to buy our cabin from KrugXP www.krugxp.com a company in the Ukraine, about 200KM from Kiev. We looked at their products at the Allradmesse in Germany and visited the factory in Cherkassky, Ukraine. The quality, level of detail (as you can see in some of the plans and 3D’s and especially the craftsmanship convinced us. Some more details about equipment to come later.
