Install Initial Wood Panels

What happens here

With the panels cut, begin the installation process. Take the first cut wood panel and align it precisely on the wall surface. The wall in the video is shown covered with Tyvek house wrap, which provides a weather barrier. Use a hammer to gently tap the panel into its final position, ensuring it's flush and level. Once positioned correctly, use a pneumatic nail gun to fasten the panel securely to the wall. Drive nails through the panel into the wall studs or blocking behind the house wrap. For a clean look, aim to blind nail if the profile allows, or face nail discreetly.

Goal: Securely attach the first sections of wood paneling
