Sunday mornings for me are for watching car shows. I'm still a bit of a gear head. When that was done I wandered out and put in the last 4 vents. It didn't take long, so I figured I would see how the siding went up. Not too bad as it turns out. Being only 3/8" thick, it is a bit wavy, but flattens against the wall nicely as you nail it down. The first one was the hardest and I had lots of help from Sally on the level and guiding eye. The sheets are a bit long, so snapping a chalk line and lopping off about 1 1/2" off the bottom is in the plan. I am also going to put a trim piece on top, so I am not worried in the least about the top edges meeting nice. As long as I keep all the sheets vertical I will be in good shape. The colour debate debate continues. I guess if I see something on sale, that is what it will be.
As far as the rest of the day. Well, a guy has to kick back every once in a while, and the weather is perfect for just that and....
Now I know they caution about drinking and boating, so, a designated driver is always on hand. Not that we are going any where.
I am puttering along at an easy pace now. Trying not to push too hard. Slow and steady!
Thanks for dropping in!
