DAY 6 |
|
|
|
Today we will be taught how to shingle our roofs with real cedar shakes. Supplies include bags of chips (short and long lengths of shakes - hand cut by Rik), white glue and a miter cuter. But, I quickly abandoned the miter cuter (which is great in other applications) and used a simple kitchen scissors and my fingers. |
|
|
First few rows laid. |
|
|
The slightly more difficult eyebrow side is begun. 12 hour day. |
