1. Continue mounting wall boards, including the incrementally longer boards
(POS. 8 – 12) that form the overhang.
2. The first 2 incrementally longer side boards (POS. 10 & POS. 11)
on the window
side are split
to accommodate the window.
3. If you have the add-on window in place, continue cutting the boards one by one
until you fill the whole height of the window frame. Then, top it off with the full-
length board.
4. Fasten the top wall boards (POS. 12) to the perpendicular boards below them. Drill
pilot holes; use 2 ³/₄" long screws at each corner.
NOTE.
Notice that the top wall boards (POS. 12) do not have the tongue and are tapered
to replicate the angle of the gable.
TRICK
If you're in a rush to stain or paint your shed as soon as possible, or
some boards are not
fully seated
, you can help them settle by using ratchet straps to pull the wall boards
together - loop two straps over the full height of the shed near the corners, and tighten
them.
Alternatively, you may stomp your feet on the roof to help it settle faster.
