Other types require face nailing as well.
Make my own tongue and groove siding.
To begin making tongue and groove boards you first must decide to use either a table saw or a router.
Check to make sure the siding you choose has a successful track record in your region.
Any rubbish under the wood can cause errors in your cuts.
A 1x4 tongue groove pattern is going to create a line every 3 inches while a 1x6 creates its line every 5 inches for the same pattern.
Depending on how the pieces fit together some jointed sidings can be fully attached by blind nailing through a tongue or underlap that will be covered by the course above.
Make sure your routing table is clear of sawdust and other debris.
Insert your new board s tongue into your old board s groove and lay the new board s front groove over the other old board s tongue.
You can use your circular saw set to the depth of just the back part of the groove.
