CC T&G Paneling

CC T&G Paneling is Camper Cabin (CC) Tough-and-Groove (T&G) Paneling, a custom Wood Product developed and produced for the ATTB Construction Project. The product is produced out of Northern White Pine as part of our Forestry Stewardship Program to log out pine in favor of mixed hardwoods. The product is logged by CDP Construction crews and cut on our Woodmizer LT40 Sawmill. Planing is done in our Woodshop on our Jet 20″ Planer and final edge-milling for the T&G is done by a neighbor on antique milling machines.

During planing, a «good» side is marked with crayon or pencil so the edging crew can apply the bevels to the correct side in the edging process.

Process

  1. Logging
  2. Saw milling
  3. Air Drying (minimum 6 months)
  4. Planing (both sides)
  5. Edging
  6. Face Sanding
  7. Install
  8. Finishing (with entire cabin interior)

Specifications

  • Species: Northern White Pine
  • Rough Sawn Stock: 1″ x 6″ x (8′, 10′, 12′, 15′)
  • Edge: T&G
  • Finish: Planed both sides and sanded on one side (interior facing)
  • Finish Dimensions: 7/8″ x 5-7/16″ x (8′, 10′, 12′, 15′)
  • Coverage: 5-1/6″ to 5-1/8″

Install

  1. Boards are secured to studs through the tongue with at least 1-1/2″ Finishing Nails (or longer). Bottom course is installed with nails through the face to prevent sagging as wall is installed (this is covered by Kick Trim. A cut piece of stock with the groove remaining is a helpful block to hammer paneling boards together.
  2. All butt joints between boards are supported on studs.
  3. Board lengths are alternated so butt joints do not align in adjacent rows.
