Sunburst Gable-end Fan
Bob meets with Brian Quinn, the siding contractor, and installs beautiful gable-end fan sunbursts from clapboard siding. Brian explains how to layout the center moon, or half-circle, how to calculate the spacing and size of each fan, and how to cut the material to fit perfectly. Brian uses a, by eye, measurement to determine the size of the center moon, he did this by placing different sized half circles into the space until it looked right. To insure the proper curve, Brian draws each curve free hand, transferring the curve to each clapboard then cutting and securing before going on to the next piece.
