Cool. I'll even come over and sign it next time I visit my mother in law if you like.
:-):-)
Where you at in Rochester? Anywhere close to Webster?

Pretty close. The other side of the river.

That's how I stretch my projects out too.

Greece. Definitely do so!
Day 4: Packed everything up and tarped over the damaged section on account of rain forcasted for Days 4-7. I LOVE Rochester. Raining now so time for a smoke.

Some work done yesterday. I'll finish this eventually.
Squared out damaged area, replaced damaged rafter, installed nailers for patches.

Godd day today. A little humid, but I had some time to work on the shed again. The tarp I tacked up over the hole really got a workout over the last few months, but I won't need it any more!
The good thing about this being a new shed and a small hole is that I kept the extra building materials, so I didn't need to spend a lot of dough to do this. But I didn't have any 5/8" plywood left over, so I needed to buy a sheet of that to patch with, and I did:

I also needed some flashing, but I had extra Tyvek, roofing felt, shingles, and drip edge.

And none of the siding was damaged so it went right back up. I use screws for almost everything I build, so it's easier to fix when I mess it up, and this came in really handy for this part.
Done! Only took 7 months! Now Mrs. Tikihut wants me to refinish the dining room...

Notice how dark the last pic is. Big T-storm hit minutes after completion. (It was already raining a little bit by the time the siding was finished.) Good weatherproofing test.

You can't even tell it was ever smashed. Good job!
