Deere-est Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Cj I made one truss and then used it as a template for the other four to make five for the four bay shed at Leverets Farm. To make the roof I used very thin r/c aircraft fuselage ply stuck down onto the trusses. I used Bostik glue for this red tube, can't remember the name. Grip it at the edges with clothes pegs. Then I roughly cut the card to shape and stuck it down with pva. I tied string over it to hold it down. You can use a heavy towel or blanket though, ask Garret.
