Siding panels

The outer layer on the classroom building is going up!
We decided to hang steel roofing panels
as siding because there isn't any vinyl siding
for sale here.
The workers hung a plastic tarp to block
the sun from one side where it was melting
the duct tape they were using on the
asphalt paper layers.  At 7000 ft. elevation,
direct sun rays can get pretty strong.
They took down the plastic once the
siding was screwed on.
Cutting the panels to fit under the roof
was difficult, but important for keeping
out flies when we are using this building
as a kitchen.  The flies come from our
neighbor's toilet wastewater dumping pit.
Veronica and I are checking out the progress!
