I am using rough cut, full thickness lumber for either horizontal lap siding or vertical board and batten siding on a shed. Cracks are likely to develop where the boards overlap.
Is there some relatively thin (1/16" to 1/8"?) and inexpensive sheeting material (not plastic and not housewrap) I can install first over the frame to prevent air flow and form a nice looking, finished inner surface? And make the shed walls secure from wind, mice, etc.?
Also, is there some material like this that would also serve as sheer/ surface bracing for the walls?
If these are unusual materials, where can I buy them?
Thanks, Len
