Corrugated teardrop

Postby Oster » Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:15 pm

I saw a picture of a corrugated teardrop somewhere on this forum, and I loved it, but of course I can't find it now!
Does anyone know what kind of material people use for corrugated siding, and how much it costs? Has anyone tried using corrugated aluminum roofing as a siding before?

There is a world, just beyond now,
where reality runs a razor thin seam between fact and possibility;

Anywhere I roam where I lay my head is home....

I know what you are talking about. Barrie built one out of cardboard. Let me see if I can find it.

Here is a pic of mine. There are a few more in my album. I have since added fenders. It would have been very simple to clad the sides in the same old corrugated metal but I chose the cedar fence wood instead.
