Since rain was in the forecast, we decided to work on siding.

This is our rain cover for the saw. Siding is right next to it. It's a pain in the neck, literally, to work under these tarps, but allows us to move forward, no matter the weather.
A couple sunny days allowed us to uncover our tiny house, and work unencumbered by the rain or the restrictions of ropes and tarps. We're getting the hang of it, so to speak, and DK Doesn't Kompromise on anything, so it's looking great.
We'd expected more time to cover before the last rain. We ran out to the site after work that day, but couldn't beat the rain. Some water was trapped between the tarp and the underlayment, so I took this chance to swab it
all off.

After installing the bug screen, DK filled a small area between the medex sheathing and fender with 100% silicone.
The fumes that emit while it dries, rusted the galvanized mesh, so he replaced it.
