The recommended thickness of the walls depends on whether you’re planning to use the cabin for short stays or live in it. A single skin (28 mm, 34 mm, 44 mm, 66 mm) thickness is appropriate for a log cabin that will be used occasionally, while insulated twin skin log cabins (34 mm + 34 mm or 44 mm + 44 mm) or single skin cladded ones (34 mm + 20 mm or 44 mm + 20 mm) should be great for longer or permanent stays.
