Finishing touches (4/5)

List item

Once the walls were on, the roof beams were fastened in place. Then the roof panels were put on. I didn’t realize until I got all of the roof panels on snugly that I was supposed to put half of the roof crown (the centerpiece that prevents it from leaking) on before connecting the last two roof panels. So those panels had to come back off, then the roof crown was attached for the back half of the roof. 

The two roof panels were then put on again and the other part of the roof crown were affixed. At that point, it actually looked like a shed, except for the doors, which I then put together. It actually took about 20 minutes to put each of the two doors together, and another 20 to put them in, but they are surprisingly stout and sturdy with all the braces in place.
