The small gap on the back side of tongue and groove is to insure that the front (show) aide seats tight. Basically it's for the manufacturing tolerances.
Hi all. I think it’s really looking very smart indeed , much better than a standard profile . And although you have had an issue with it you have overcome the problem , as they say problems are part of life but being able to solve is the ultimate key to success . Bless you all. And best wishes as always 😀👍👍👍
At last. We have been waiting for the cladding, but it looks great! When it's finished, it would be good to know the total length of cladding used. Laid end to end it would reach......... Well done.
Pretty neat work👍 Have you left any expansion gap between the ends of the boards and the vertical strips and are you going to add a thin strip over the vertical strips to protect the end grains???
Nice having Robin Clevett on speed dial…. You don’t fancy sharing his phone number? 😀 I watched his full big build series…. Excellent education for young and (relatively) old like me.
It’s quite a transformation and worth the extra tickling on the grooves to improve the fit of the boards. As usual a quality piece of work to make it look just right. One thing, perhaps need a drip groove under the horizontal pieces on frames for the windows and openings if possible? Might be worth looking at if you can do it with the boards now being fitted. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple Thanks Tim, will check them out. I’m building a Pottery studio for my wife 21ft x 10ft. Liked the way you sealed your windows. I am bringing my windows flush with the lathe then sealing with tape.
On the matter of drainage. Inspite of being caulked (I presume) would it also be better if the underside of the 'sill' of the reveal frame has drip groove along it?
Great job. Where do you get your energy from? Bottle some and send it to me please! I love the way you find a solution if things don't go according to plan.
So the lesson here is that if you buy something is cheap, you'll have to put some work in to make it right... the question with that is: how much are you worth per hour? Can you do it cheaper in total, hire someone who is skilled and can do it better/faster, or is it better to just pay the normal price? I for one never finish up drywall and hire someone. I can put the sheets up, but I'll be damned if I'm going to waste my time mudding, taping, and sanding. I can work and earn more than an expert costs to do it for me. If you can, do it yourself... up to a point.
Guess it was half a day of router table but works out at 70p a metre so at least £1.50 per meter saved. So I’d have to be on £3000 a day to have lost out. 😂
You are certainly not shy of work Tim,you are doing a great job,always top notch..
It's looking good Tim. Congratulations for getting on with it in the face of tongue and groove disparity.👏🏼
That looks awesome and so impressive given all the issues you had to overcome, well done 👏
Thanks so much! 😊
Don’t know how Tim manages to make everything look so easy! Better than how any pro would ever do it!

God damn, RC on tap for advice... jealous of your entire existence
Looking great, winter ready
Almost. Gutters next on the list and insulating pipes.

Great job Tim and a lot of surface area to cover well done.
Recon it looks good. Not shed like more cabin for sure
Hi Tim. Love your work 👍

I personally think it looks fine👌
Nearly there team! Great job

Cladding looks great. Ultimately the cladding is sacrificial and can be replaced.
Looks great Tim
Scott Brown music is back again😂. Nice one Tim.
Would be a good collab

Don’t forget the insect mesh when your done! Got a wasp nest behind my garden office cladding last summer, was annoying.
Stainless mesh at the bottom and just a small slit in soffit. 👍
Corr I love a cladding video
It’s looking good Tim!
Great vid glad to see the cladding going on!...Not asking to make a joke just genuinely want to know...how can you have breathable airtight tape?
Looks really good 👍.
It certainly looks rustic! 😊
Hooray ... nice fings !
Great vlog as usual Tim, cladding looks super 👍 where did you get the tape for around the windows? Looking for same, have you a link to share ?
I bought it from Back to Earth where we got then wood fibre insulation. I ended up using tyvek after I ran out but no way near as good.

I hope no bugs can make their way up between the blue plastic and and the bottom of the wood
How is it air tight tape and breathable?
Like air tight breathable membranes i guess.
Great job. Where do you get your energy from? Bottle some and send it to me please! I love the way you find a solution if things don't go according to plan.
@therestorationcouple which is better investment chopsaw or wireless circular saw for building a shed?
Circ saw and a speed square would get most things done.
@@TheRestorationCouple cheers
It is looking wonderful.
You must be pleased - another job being removed from the list of things to do . . .
Thanks. Not quite removed yet, still two more sides to do! 😬
finally 😋😋
not being picky, but... how can something be airtight AND breathable?
Wonders of science I guess. Water vapour permeable yet airtight. Like intello type membrane are.
Are you not putting a drip edge on your reveals
Yes I probably should. May be able to sneak a router but under there.
@@TheRestorationCoupleit would definitely be worthwhile if you could 👍
don't windows normally have a drain hole under the sill so water can run out? is that being impeded? (still an epic job by the way :)
They are solid timber frames. 👍
Then that's a no! Nice@@TheRestorationCouple
Airtight yet breathable?
Stainless is overkill on softwood..
Depends on the species, larch, cedar, doug fir defenately. Even this treated is marking black below brads a bit.
Hope you saved enough on the cladding at auction to make recutting the tongues worthwhile. Seems like it should have worked out, but …
Thankfully yes, not worked out exactly yet but stillover £1500 saved even with half a day of tedious routering.

I hope you got some sort of large refund for the poor milling they done! Log lap isn’t cheap these days
Did you miss the bit where he said where he got it from ?
It’s an auction, you win some you lose some. That said even with the extra work it’s still saved us around £1.5k.
Things are cheap for a reason buddy
Absolutely. Half a day at a router table and £1500 saved us still worth it though.
