Shop Class Period 5 Week 12
"Hey, class!" Tim said as he bounded in.
"Today, we will be discussing exterior siding. One of the most popular choices is brick, because it stands up to the weather and blowhardy wolves." He paused for laughter and then steamerolled right on. "Other choices are wood clapboards, which look like so." He turned a wall model around to show the wood clapboard style. "There's also Vinyl siding which is made of a durable plastic and aluminum siding which is made out of aluminum, and both mimic the look of the clapboard style, but without the maintenance of having to scraaaape and repaaaaint and you're up on a ladder and there's a wasps' nest and they attack. Noooo, don't want thaaaat," he grunted.
"There's also Shiplap which is common in barns, and has the rabbited tongue-and-groove like flooring. Plywood siding, like this section of Tee-One-Eleven!!!1!! is also popular and fairly economical, as it can be stained or painted and looks good on a house or a shed or a barn. Metal siding can be used, but boy is it noisy when it hails. Just like roofing, your design'll lean you towards one way or another. And just like roofing, you can also use shingles."
"So, for today, take one of these wall modules and cover it up with one of the siding choices! Extra credit if you manage to cut around the door and window openings," he said, pointing to a group of freestanding wall modules with a door and a window framed.
