Today we got the rest of the insulation and siding up on the first end wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s hard to say whether working up high or down low is more difficult, but we did find that some people preferred one over the other.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’m very excited to be done with this wall. It was quite difficult and time consuming to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metal shavings caused by pre-drilling rust incredibly fast. We had to either clean and re-stack the panels or used them the same day to avoid staining the finish.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
