Thursday

Remember the old barn roof?

Our new main living building suddenly looks old but oh so neat!  We're using the  Island County Fairground's old roofing for our siding, after  a bit of reworking.  The edges have been folded so the pieces are interlocking and the old screw holes have been filled.  At the top  the old roofing slides into folded blue steel for a clean crisp look that secures it without screws.  At the edges there will be folded blue steel that will wrap the corners butting neatly into the doors and windows.  The steel will also slip into the folded roofing edges (now siding edges) so no screws or holders will be required.  To secure the middle, clips (Brad is holding one) are used underneath, screwed to the walls, but hidden from view.   Josh and Brad installed the south side's siding in a couple of hours yesterday.
