After three days of work plans falling through, I finally decided to do something with my unexpected time. I cleaned the pile of materials and built a rack to hold freshly painted siding. In the interest of longevity I am priming all sides of the siding before hanging it on the house. Once it is up it will get two coats of latex top paint (Cottage Red) to finish it off. The rack was build with the 2x4s that were too twisted to use in the house and a box of 16 penny nails. It will hold 100 pieces of siding while the paint dries.
