2 After laying the first log. When the end of the second log is on the opposite shore, It should be swept like this, that she is lying evenly at the first. The closer to each other the logs, the better. The second Żerdź is moved after the first until it rests on the opposite edge.
3 After two logs, you can get to the other side. After passing, put a short beam under the logs, so that they would not fall into the ground. At the beam, On both sides of the footbridge, stick wooden pegs, so that the logs do not spread.
4 A third log is laid along the first two. Now, also from this side, put the beam under the log. The footbridge can be made any wide, But usually three logs provide a convenient passage.
