Applying Exterior Trim to the Dormer Window Video

Carpenter Ryley and Bob apply exterior trim to the ranch house roof dormer window. Ryley shows Bob how to avoid having a seem in the trim on the front side of the dormer to prevent weather from entering the seem. Ryley then shows bob how to transfer an angle from the roof to the trim. He adds a spacer to keep the ice out from under the trim. Then shows Bob how to create the perfect triangular cut for the mitten or ear board.
