The metal ribbed stuff that doesn't have any exposed screws is way more expensive than that.

I thought it was pretty good too! Weird thing is, the place Allen told me about was over twice as much. They were $2,314.00. The place I'm buying from was $1,129.40. It is in Banks Oregon about a 6 hour round trip, but well worth the drive!

Evening Tiny! The exposed screws don't matter much over here because we get so little rain, and it is a shop.......

I was wondering where you disappeared to
I learned it pays to shop around for prices on metal, here in town the quote I got to do the outside of my shop was double of what I payed to do both the inside and outside from another vendor. Wish I had done that when I did the roof of my house.

I suppose that'll be Harley's problem and not yours.

I would guess that the roof on the barn out at the farm is 15-20 years old. It's just starting to show signs of the rubber grommets failing and the screws are starting to show signs of needing to be replaced or re-sealed with caulking or some other product.

Next Wednesday day shift, I'm getting move to another head-frame and not really very happy about it seeing as I will be getting bused back to where I was working anyways. There is not logic to it to us working stiffs but is to the pencil pushers in corporate headquarters. The Campbell mine is about at the end of it's life and all the capital exploration is contracted out so the want all the company employees based out of the Balmer complex so it looks better on paper. It's going to be an average of 2 hours lost each day per employee transported and it's right next door to each other.

I should probably get up on the roof and inspect for deterioration of the gaskets on mine this summer, the color has faded quite a bit even though it has a 30 year warranty
