now...on to the roof.

i decided to use corrugated tin for ease of installation, low cost and the sound it makes in the rain.

i painted all the tin brown on one side in preparation for the install.

i had already carved, burned and sealed the cross supports so they were ready to go up.

while the paint was drying on the tin, i started to unroll reed fencing across the beams, stapling as i went.

then i would put up a piece of the tin roofing and fasten it down.

repeated this 7 more times and this is what we ended up with.

this completed the first major portion of the build.

we moved the furniture from under the old patio cover to the new and set up the temporary lounge.

next up, rebuild the other patio cover.
