I went to town this morning, because I discovered that I had the wrong ventilation devices for my ridge. I was hoping to get the right ones so I could get the ridge cap all completed as I go with the other side of the roof. They did'nt have any in stock, so I guess I'll either do something else or order them on monday and insall the ridge cap after the whole thing is roofed, which I don't really like the thought of much. I really hate going to town. I can't wait until I am all done building and in relax mode. I'm going to see just how much I can avoid town.
I finally got the south side of the roof done today. Mom was out giving me a hand again today. It took me awhile and a bit of experimenting to finally figure out how I was going to do the ends. Still kinda afraid of heights over here on my end. lol.
I am hoping to have most of the north side done by the end of tomorrow, but I will make no promises.

The roof is looking real good. Once your done with your roof the rest seems to go by quicker. I know that when I got done with my roof it was like a big milestone and weight off my shoulders. You have done a real nice job Hermit. ~Jen
ReplyDeleteFor someone who's afraid of heights, I gotta hand it to ya. You're doing an amazing job! And look at that end… all nice and tidy. :))
ReplyDeleteLooking better by the day, my friend! You've come a long way in the last few months!
ReplyDeletekeep up the good work, buddy!
Wow, you're really burning it up now! That's great. I was studying the screw pattern; did you screw the overlaps on the ridges or does your metal lap more than that? And I completely agree with Acorn; nice end! heh.
ReplyDeleteIf ya want that mug email me; they're going fast.
Thanks Jen. Ya, I know what you mean. I've been wanting this thing on for quite some time now, then I can relax for a bit.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sprouting Acorn. I'm kinda slow moving around up there, but it does get easier all the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim. Slowly but surely.
ReplyDeleteHey Annie. I screwed it right beside the ridge where the sheets splice together, but I did'nt screw it down on top of the ridge, if thats what you're asking. I know, maybe I should have, but then there's probably alot things that I should have done. lol. I'll give you an email on the mug situation soon.
ReplyDeleteFantastic job on installing the roof on that house! I hope you are taking all necessary safety precautions while doing your house construction project. You must be very proud for having accomplished so much on that project despite your fear of heights. Just believe in yourself and you will be able to achieve so much more.
