Gentlemen,
I have plans (Brewer) to construct an early 1900’s one room school house and church. One of the structures calls for board and batten construction. In order to simplify the b & b design, I had the idea to use cedar fence pickets. The thought is to plane the boards to ~ 3/8" thickness and run them through the table saw with a dado blade set to 1/4" in height and ~1/2" in width to create the batten and board. This is being built to 1:20.3 scale.
Anyone ever used this method before to create board and batten. Ideas/feedback are most appreciated.
Jerry
