Abstract
A tool for installation of building siding includes an elongate base portion, an arm portion extending at a right angle thereto, and terminates in a flange portion extending at a right angle from the arm. A clip member is carried on the upper surface of the base, and extends toward the arm portion to define a gap therebetween. For use, one or more of the tools are placed on the bottom edge of the piece of siding so that the siding is releasably captured in the gap. The piece of siding can then be placed at an appropriate position on a wall above a previously-installed piece of siding, so that the flange rests on the upper edge of the previously installed piece. The installer may rest the piece of new siding, with the tool(s) in place, on the previously installed piece of siding, enabling the installer to temporarily nail the new piece in place. The tool(s) can then be removed from the new piece by twisting and pulling down on the handle portion.
