Cedar shingle update since I know you've all been dying with anticipation. Well, no pics yet! grin

Actually it's because it's taking about 8 times longer than I thought and I've only been home 1 day since last posting this. A whole 5 rows of shingles are up. I will be home tomorrow night for the next 4 days so should be able to git er done.

While I am most definitely a hack, it seems to be turning out pretty good so far.

More to come on the weekend - and hopefully some pics.


Don't worry, getting started always takes the longest. After a while you realize that other than keeping a straight horizontal line, shingles actually look better the more random they are so you stop being so fussy and then things just fly along.


With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.
