I'm starting the residing job on the house, and have decided to put in a water table. Just wondering what the consensus is regarding joining long horizontal runs; should I use a scarf joint with the cut surfaces dipped in primer, or butt joint them with/without caulking?
The only reason I can see for a scarf joint is to prevent any gap appearing in event of wood movement, since it certainly won't help water shedding as it would on a vertical trim piece.
