Underside of the roof, progress and completion.
Whoa, whats this...an actual update. Iam just as surprised as you are. Like usual life is always getting in the way of progress, I really need to make that a slogan on a t-shirt seeing as I use it alot on my blog here. Whats been keeping me from working on the pond you say? Why my little machine shop that I built and set up(when I get the chance Ill post some pics). Yeah that started as what I though would of been a nice little quick side project but alas like everything else it took over, story of my life. Anyhoo back on topic here the pond. Over the course of the past month I was able to do some work on it, mainly the underside of the roof. I was given these plastic sheets that were originally used at a shopping center, so naturally since they were gonna be pitched my dad gladly took them home.
These were great because since they were plastic I could cut them easily with some Tin Shears. The next step was to dry fit them so I could draw up where I need to cut the slots for the trusses to come through.
Once they were attached I had to cut the angles at the end, that way all four sides would meet up nicely.
Once all that was done it all looked like one even running piece. It was so nice working with these plastic pieces just the weight alone meant I could do it all by myself with out a extra pair of hands. Definitely need to find out where to get these so if I ever do this in the future to use them again. Next step will be the decorative rafter tails I want to make for each truss. Till next post....hopefully very soon....which by the way should be on the back of said shirt I mentioned earlier.
