Steel Log Siding, the Wood Look with No Maintenance

steel-log-siding.jpgIf you've always dreamed of a log home in the mountains or on some pristine wildnerness lake but aren't ready to give up the convenience of that house in the city, you can get into the spirit with log siding or--perhaps even more practical--steel log siding.

This faux wood steel siding from Karst Builders can make your home look like it's made from logs without the required maintenance that comes with actual wood. But can steel fool anyone? Here's what the company says:

"We run the steel through several stations on the machine that not only round the panel to look like a log but also textures the steel to make it look more like a cut log. Your home will look like a log home at a fraction of the cost, and lack the maintenance needed for a real log home."

If the picture is any indication, it looks pretty realistic to me. Only the woodpeckers will know the difference...
