Looks good Bob :thumbsup: What kind of trim do you have on the edges.? Seems wider than usual.

Miriam,

The larger front piece across the top is 4 inch aluminum bent in the center at 135 degrees. The rest is standard 1 & 1/2 inch roof edge - cheap, but it should work. Eventually all of this will be painted. :thinking:

Thanks Bob. I guess before I got all excited about not having to make wood trim I should have paid more attention to the lack of curves. Somehow I don't think That will anneal too good. :?

Your right it won't, but I just have to make bends and cuts, a lot simpler. That's one reason I picked the "Weekend" style as my first TTT. Perhaps my next build will be more sophisticated or difficult. ;)
