We have a fixer upper 1500 sq. ft. house that we are remodeling. We will strip the exterior walls to the studs (existing siding is not an option).
We will use pine 1x8s for lap siding. Would OSB or rigid insulation board be best? I read that the OSB would prevent the 1x8s from "cupping". I think that adding insulation board on the OSB would be thicker that the window and door depth (already in place).
