Hopefully the picture of what I'm starting with will post ok. I'm going to use a preasure treated lumber frame, (6' x 10' area) I want thatch on the roof but I'm not sure if it's better to put down OSB sheeting, or just lay the thatch over the truss'. Also is there a good spot to get thatch? Other plans include a bar top made from beer bottle tops. The fire pit will be near the bar so sitting at the bar will put you near the fire pit, matching thatch covered 10'x10' canopy across the fire pit from the bar... I have collected lots of lighted corona, etc signage. Trying to incorporate my BBQ under the bar, and a small college size fridge. It will be incorporated into my new shed I'm building Where the stamped cement is, you can also see the brackets where my 4x4 posts will go to support the roof: Thanks for the assistance!! -Chris
