Elkhart House Project - 

June 18, 2004

Blake and I slipped away on Friday to add the corner bracing, finish the trim and dry it in.

 

115 sheets of Hardi Plank waiting to go up on the next trip.
the little vent adds some look to the front.  I still plan on installing a ridge vent.  Lower soffits are HP with the holes in it.  Same as the house.
Hardi should go up fast on the lower walls.  I'll add a studd where needed for a nailer.  On this side wall it'll be 12' then 8' then 8'-12' then back to 12'-8' all the way up.  On the back it's a 12'-12' then 6'-12'-6' then back to 12'-12'.  Then the entry door side gets all solid pieces until I get over the door.  The front doors will get the left over shorts.  Each 28".
