Go CEDARIST!!!
Cradle to Cradle.... YEAH!
Anybody seen the movie "Blue Vinyl"?

We would like to cast a vote in favor of "Fine" Homebuilding refraining from considering articles such as the one that promotes the use of vinyl siding. As a readers of FHB we are interested in "Fine" homebuilding. Vinyl siding has no place in a "Fine" Home.

In addition, Mike, I would like to suggest that when faced with a question of cost and maintenance you would take the opportunity to educate the consumer. Please remember we must as responsible humans, consider ALL the pros and cons when making decisions regarding building material choices. The costs to the environment, embodied energy, lifecycle analysis, petroleum based products are all examples of concerns and considerations. "Cost" is not a simple matter and "Wood" versus "Vinyl" is not an apples and apples comparison.

Thanks for reading and responding.

It's the BEST... I wouldn,t swing anything but my Stilletto. It makes and 8 hour day feel like 4. It enables me to have enough energy left at the end of the day to go home to the shop and carve or work on the shave horse. Spend the money... Buy two... It keeps on giving!
