Follow along with a mobile home metal skirting job. This one is pretty simple, very few cuts. We have other skirting videos that go through difficult cuts.

They do the corner trim, and show simple cuts. The results are beautiful.

The tool list: Materials you have top-front, j-channel, corner trim, and metal panels
Want: straight snips, straight hammer, four-foot level, screw gun with quarter inch bit, screws, nails to hold down the j-channel, tape measure, pencil, and razor knife
