I have received a lot of questions about staggering the planks on the cabin walls. Here is my attempt to answer them with a VR....

Just watched this video. Great job on explaining the spacing, why you need to do it, and how. I am an amateur DIYer and I Thank You!

Thank you for this!!! I needed it and yours was the only one I could find that discussed staggering of planks! Now, to find the other video you mentioned!

Great tip for planking walls like this application is to apply #felt behind the planks to avoid seeing the insulation in the gaps or when boards shrink

@rottiemom1891 Жыл бұрын

For the "felt", I thought I would try, landscaping fabric. I'm trying to cut my costs.

@rottiemom1891 Жыл бұрын

Wouldn't it depend on the type of wood.? If it's barn wood that you're using it's going to be weathered, so it's already shrunk. So, that's where you would use the black or a Cocoa Brown backing. His looks like a different kind of wood. Treated wood maybe? The wood is so straight and fits snug to one another. I don't see any gaps in between the wood, so maybe that's why he's not using any backing

Most helpful. I knew staggering was needed, just didn’t know the best way to go about it. Thank you!

Thank you very much for explaining it! I've watched several videos stating how to stagger, but then it shows the first board put up and then staggering the second board, & next clip is the finished project. Yours explained it very well!

Excellent! Thanks so much! I also wasn't keen on aligned boards neither, now thanks to your expertise, I know that staggered joints are structurally stronger than aligned joints. 😀

There's a similar idea when hanging drywall. Staggering the joints also makes the joint way less obvious. If a joint was to run the entire 8 feet, it would look hellish. Good vid!

If you have a wall that 89” wide and your siding is 96” wide do you need to artificially create seams or can you run the wall up without a seam being a single board covers the length? Thx.

If it’s a paper faced batt of insulation like he has you can’t put a barrier you’ll get condensation. Batts like RockWool you can if you want because it’s not faced.

Great video!!! I will be beginning this very thing for the interior-walls of our log cabin in Idaho (previous owner had sheetrock on inner walls and I've wrecked all of that abomination out...) this weekend and am using cedar plank that I have ripped to uniform widths (little more narrow than yours). My question is, did you use any type of uniform spacing between planks? As in a penny, dime, etc, something of the sort? Why (what) or why not? Again, thank you sir for this video as I searched it our for the 'pattern' guidance that you offered. MAGA...

@greenkitty6482 6 жыл бұрын

What do you do if there are gabs between planks? I kind of worry about critters building nest behind the planks and you can't get to the . I have some badly damaged walls in my apartment the contractor ditched me after delaying for the whole summer to fix the walls(I guess the job of fixing walls is probably not profiting enough). Instead of fixing them with drywalls, I would like to build plank walls. Would you suggest filling the space between studs with foam or something? I'd appreciate some idea. Thanks : )

@RiverBendSurvival 6 жыл бұрын

Yes, mine will be chinked...... That is the process of filling the gaps, plenty of products available online for that.... Thanks for watching!
