I keep periodic progress photographs but do not keep a written log. I fail to see the purpose of a day to day builders log.

The log is that proof. Without the Certificate, you will not legally be able to perform inspections or repairs on your airplane and will have to hire a A&P to do those tasks. Jim Gates
