[QUOTE="nkrell11, post: 8544082, member: 645505"] Well small updates as usual, been attaching wood to the roof over the last couple of days. I put the first piece up Monday and let it cure the full 24 hours to make sure it would stay stuck on. Attaching it to the roof by myself wasn't too bad probably because the pieces weren't huge. Used a full tube of PL premium on each piece figured it would be sufficient. Vibraflex will be in Friday so I'll have something to do, also waiting on one more part so I can start fixing the heat issues. I might not have many friends but I have jacks and they're helpful and don't complain. Test fitting the first piece basically I just screwed everything together and it made it pretty easy to just guide into place.

Good thing we have a couple jacks at the house.
