We got a single board of bevel siding to replace four sections of siding that were pretty far gone. The vertical trim board missing from E's right at the edge of the front wall of the shed where he's working was replaced with new cedar on both sides of the front.

Nearly done here. The last three courses of shingles were too long to fit on the roof and so we cut them down. Even the uppermost course was a little long and so we made the exposure of the next to top course four inches so we'd have more shingle to work with.

Ridge boards on. You can see the shorter exposure on the upper courses. Not visible in this picture is the adjustment I made to the ridge board that was underneath. I cut a bevel along the length of the board so that when they overlap, it makes a less acute joint between the ridge boards.
