ok, i still have not made up my mind between wood siding or metal siding, i was dead set on metal, but after cutting the metal for the roof and seeing how much of a pain it is to keep the cut straight, im afraid that if i use metal siding, with all the cuts i am going to have to make for the windows, doors, and the gable ends where it meets the slop of the roof, that i will have a messy looking job, i can definately keeps the cuts straight with wood, if i use wood, it will either be t1-11 or smart siding, wich looks just like T1-11 on the outside, but the backside of it is OSB instead of plywood like the T1-11. wondering wich would be the better choice out of the 2 wood sidings? Wich would not soak up the paint as much, i know i heard that the T1-11 uses a lot of paint because it absorbs it like a sponge..

Something must have kicked in an inspection tho, Chucko wondered about it as the very first message of this thread, and couldn't find anything about a surprise inspection in any of the other shed messages....
Me, I view wood as a 5 year solution, needs repainting. While tin is a 20 year solution. A little more work now is worth missing 4 repainting projects.... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif I live in a humid summers area, wood rots. Strand/chip board swells & falls apart if not well coated with paint at all times. Prefer tin.
