Shiplap Shop Walls

Bob Hills

Project Description
Felled 2 trees from shop footprint. Used other available trees. Sawed into 1” boards of various widths. Dried boards in a small dehumidifying kiln(Nyle brand). When dry, planed to 3/4”, ripped to 4”, 5” and 7” final widths. Rabbeted both ends and nailed to interior walls of shop. Worked a lot of hours but saved a ton on finished lumber and have a full 3/4” boards instead of 5/8” or less!

Finished Dimensions
Shop is 22’ by 32’ with partial attic.

Money Saved
$3000 to $5000
