One-piece corner boards

摘要

I have been putting quite a bit of fiber-cement siding on Habitat houses. There are several ways to make up the corner boards to hide the ends of the lap siding. Sometimes, we use one piece of 4/4 stock and let it extend a full inch beyond a corner. This one piece will hide the siding ends on two walls. Sometimes, we use a traditional two-piece corner board made of 4/4 stock. This consists of a 1x4 on one side matched to a 1x3 on the other. We usually take the time to screw these two pieces together before installation. At still other times, we use the metal corners that slip over the ends of the siding.
