Hey guys, I am starting a cedar barn shake siding job. By barn shake I mean it is not tapered, it remains 3/8 thick throughout the shake. The exposure will be 5″ and the job will have weaved corners not trim. My hope is to get tips on how to get the corners done quick. should I find the angles and pre cut them or install and shave to corner each shake. How would you cut them? Table saw or circular saw gang cuts? Also the buider has installed Tyvek already . Problem? Any other quick tips or pitfalls. I will be getting $25 per bundle.
