Exactly, we have solid wood panel providers nearby: they build completely without glue, one with aluminum pins, the other with wooden screws. We also find that interesting

Hello,
we are also facing similar decisions that you were still facing in February or are still facing.
Is M(assiv)H(olz)M(auer) the provider with the aluminum pins and the other one "only-wood"?
Which provider did you decide on?
@all:
We took a look at a model home at Fullwood. The consultation was polite, but we had to pull everything out of them and left disappointed after half an hour.
A few weeks ago we visited Nordic-Haus. Exactly the opposite.
We were advised personally by the boss himself and after more than 4 hours of consultation and viewing several houses, floor plans, and detailed price lists of comparable, already built houses, we had a really good feeling.
The jumbo beams made of spruce pleased my wife especially. Unfortunately – as with Fullwood as well – the beams are now glued together from several half-beams.
They also offer CLT (cross-laminated timber) in the form of their so-called "Swedish wall." I also found that attractive, but in that, the boards are glued together. At Nordic it is only 1% glue, but we actually want to build glue-free. You never know what might be discovered in the future. Asbestos was probably also considered completely harmless in the past.
Price-wise everything at Nordic-Haus was within range and quite transparent.
I would be interested to know where the prices lie with Thoma, MHM, and "onlyWood."
Does anyone here have information about that?
I have another cost estimate from Hans-Georg Unterrainer (just google / YouTube him -> very informative and thought-provoking). He can be found on Google under "Rast und Ruh."
He even builds such a house on ground anchors instead of a concrete slab foundation, which is not entirely ecologically harmless. So far I have only found Krinner as a company for ground anchors and mostly only for garden houses etc. But the anchors apparently also come in 2–3 meter lengths.
To you homeowners:
Has anyone among you built a fully solid wood house and had special experiences with it?
To you home planners / wishers:
What are your thoughts on the individual providers or products?
Looking forward to all replies,
the novice here
