Wow ... seems like forever since I posted. A few people have asked how my project has been going. Sorry for that, my phone battery exploded and killed the phone and the second phone I ordered had issues recording sound and had to be returned. I just have not had time to pick another one up so I have not posted lately.
OK ... so side one is done. I then moved everything to the other of the building.
This side is taking longer. First, the days are getting shorter and shorter.
Second, I am working on the cap at the same time. The top of the panels has a special "Z" trim piece installed between each of the panels (the same height as the seams). This Z trim has holes in it and a foam shield on the back. It allows air to pass though so the roof is vented.
They need to be positioned just right as the cap has a hem on each side and clips over it.
I then have the fun job of climbing out onto the roof, crimp the cap hem and putting rivets in to hold the cap to the Z trim.
Just a lot of playing around ... but it is getting there.
Winter is on the way ... snow is on the mountain behind me.
Got to keep pushing.
