Turkey House part 9

The front roof needed finishing and I was going to use shingles. My son offered me an alternative, some left over eavestrough protector. It's like a 3' wide roll of shingle with a peel and stick back. I had just enough to cover the roof.


First I put some drip edge along the bottom edge of the roof. This makes water run off and not double back and soak into the boards. Very cheap, $3.75 for a 10' length.



 After a few hours in the sun it was stuck down solid. It's rained for a week and there were no leaks.
