Just posting a few pictures of our Magboard SIP home that I was asked for, roof trusses should be here Monday! Looks like I need some windows. Sean

Where is the house located? Who made the panels? What level surface does the MGO board give you (E.g. level 3)? Any thoughts about MGO SIPS in general now that you've had the experience of getting them up? Thanks!

About 9000 screws! Make sure you get a good quickdrive and the screws have to be coated so the magboard doesn't break them down. I used enerfoam adhesive as well. I kinda thought the drywall type screws weren't going to be strong enough until I had to tear a panel apart, that foam really bonds. Sean
