After a day working at Barry's house - I managed to belt sand the fascia board -( the joints nice and flush now) - 80 then 120 grit belts.
I Routed the front edges with a 6 mm radius cutter - looks great.
I marked out and routed an 8 mm groove at each end for the PVC fascia boards for the sides to slot into.
I glued and pinned the oak strip to the top edge - to pull down the edge of the roofing felt.
I also emailed Cuprinol at the weekend - asking if it is better to prime the bare cladding before painting with garden shades - NO - two coats straight onto bare wood within 8 hours of each coat .
Sounds too easy ??
A very productive evening.
Amazing - working on a 15 foot job, inside - with 9 foot more spare room - wow.
I can hang it tomorrow if it's fine weather.
Mike.
