Put up the west facing t 1-11 today. As there was no convenient place to get a lever positioned to hold the siding up I nailed a 2x4 level across the ends of the flooring beams 9foot and 1/16th of an inch below the top line for the siding. I also nailed scrap wood on top of the top plate with some overhang to give me a "stop" for the top of the siding. I lifted the siding sheets up till they contacted the stop plate and then set the bottom edge on the 2x4. This worked very well and actually made putting up the siding by myself fairly easy.
