DIY Board and Batten - ORC week 4 & 5

Today we installed the board and batten 🥳
It was my first time using a nail gun, and nobody can't stop me now! 😂😂

Materials I used for this project: 

• pine boards from Home Depot

      top boards: (2) 1x4x8' 

      bottom boards: (2) 1x2x8' 

      vertical boards: (8) 1x3x8'

• Level
• Caulk brand Alex Plus
• Behr paint Conifer Green Eggshell finish.
• Paint brush
• Paint roller
• Paint tray
• Industrial glue brand Gorilla
• Frog tape
• Drop cloth
• Nail gun 18 gauge brand Ryobi Tools USA

My board and batten accent wall is 48" tall. 

I used two 1x4x8' for the horizontal top boards. Use a level, glue and nail gun to attach them to the wall.

For the vertical boards, I cut the 8' wood trims in half with a circular saw. I kept a 14" spacing between boards.

Last step was caulk and paint. We built this board and batten for a total of $183. The paint color is Conifer Green by Behr.
