Shingle Technique

Technique I used for the cedar shingle/siding of the fishing shack MOC. Might be better suited for a roof… The walls are 1×2 tiles, attached vertically to 1×6 horizontal plates. I overlaped those assemblies, spacing them 1.5 studs apart (using a 1/2 stud offset plate in back). This allows you to randomly slide/stagger each individual tile.
