What's to laugh at? Looks good to me. Will there be rake overhangs or is that it with edge flash?

Thanks guys.......We will have 2 track/sliding doors as you can see....haven't built them yet, but hung the track and cover(as the cover goes behind the steel).


Ha.....sorry about the mess on the inside......I got 'er cleaned up tonight(just got in). We've been working pretty fast, and not paying a whole lot of attention to detail as we should.....harvest is on the way. Not to mention, I'm building with my dad(farmer)....he just drops stuff where it lays.....and loves to get tangled all up in cords,etc.

Thanks for the comments.....keep them coming....

Got a quick question guys........for the inside room you see(there will actually be 3 different rooms in there.....I will be steeling the inside of atleast one of these rooms, how do I do the bottom to keep it somewhat "sealed"....for both insulation purposes and because it will be a washroom. Do I use the starter like on the outside.....or J-trim(worried J will let water sit)......

Thanks,
Brad

I would recommend starter(if you are referring to the starter that looks like style A flashing) put a bead of good quality cualking down on the slab first to seat it in.That should keep your water from seeping under the wall.

Yes it is the starter that is kind of like a square with the back side folded up(behind the steel).......I'll just go the route, and caulk the bottom good. thanks!!!



No overhangs........might gutter someday.....I put the corner and gable flashing on today.....and also the ridge vent and ridge cap.
