" OK looks like Tim and rob have done quick work of putting up the clapboard is nice neat job and are you ready for the -- Freeze board up there yeah I'm just actually siding now. What what I'm doing is I'm. Navigating. The freeze board which is gonna require us to have an inch and a half freeze board to match the existing up there you have you need to have a thick piece that's correct and rather than buy a milled piece of wood that's you know six quarter rate or whatever. You're just gonna glue two pieces together. That's correct but what's what would you what's the little cut for. Well actually instead of having an open end grain right here what I'm gonna do is return. The second piece of pine right around this filler piece right here and then you'll miter the second piece into it you'll have a nice clean mitered. Corner and it'll be nice primed wood on both sides and what's interesting about this is that it's. A man made engineered wood product right what's it called that's right this is Bavarian timber wood. Any finger joints no finger joints it's sixteen foot straight winds. Excluding Germany looks like -- is there really there's no finger joints and the key of course is the fact that the grain. Direction varies from piece to piece so that you get strength and stability built in that's correct all right so this needs to be nailed in a gonna glue it as well it is now we're just gonna nail this K I'll hold it on foreign."

" So you hand nailed all the clapboard and they look beautiful but this you can just. Shouldn't place for now right now this is the backer board so. This is not going to --"

" Once the thickness has been attained and the board has been nailed up then we can actually apply the molding. Which is -- a bed molding. That provides a transition between the vertical freeze board and the horizontal -- board."

" All right we got a nice to miter -- and these are being had nail and if we look closely up above. We see there we're really replicating the exact same detail that they put on the house a hundred years ago. Nice job -- thank you all right we're running out of time next time when we're gonna be putting in some radiant heat and a few other details to that I'm Bob Vila.
