How to Install Board-and-Batten Siding

Fine Homebuilding: Writing to Fine Homebuilding's Breaktime forum, WenWS is looking for some advice on the best way to finish the board-and-batten siding for his new house. His plans call for 9 1/2-in. boards and 3-in. battens, which he says he'll finish with a high-quality stain. "Our original intention was to stain all boards, all sides before putting it up," WenWS writes. "The house is 32 x 64 so this would be a big job, but we understood this to be best to seal the wood completely before installing."
