Then save. The Porter Davis ones aren't exactly what I had in mind. More like this.65_Central_Street_cornice_brackets.jpg It was hard to find a picture of what I had in mind. Mike, that's the sort of thing I'm talking about. Maybe I don't see these in new homes because a lot of new homes don't have eaves.
