3.
Select the 116-1/2" sidewall assembled in Step 2. Butt the wall frame, assembled above, against
the wall with siding. DO NOT nail these frames together so they can be separated later.
4.
Install a full width siding panel but do not nail along the long edge that overlaps the 116-1/2"
wall frame. You can nail this edge after the wall panels are installed. This will enable you to
separate the wall panels making them easier to handle.
5.
Install the 24" siding panel, cut in Step 2, last. It will extend 3-1/2" beyond the wall frame.
