STEP 59: ROOF BOARDS/ROOF FINISHERS

1: Place the 1 x 5 x 52” Roof Boards on top of the Roof Supports, fitting the tongue into the

groove of the Roof Starter. The holes in the Roof Boards should be centered over the Roof

Supports. There are seven Roof Boards on each side of the roof. If necessary place a scrap 2 x

4 board against the Roof Board and hammer on it to seat the tongue into groove for the Roof

Boards. Fasten each Roof Board to the Roof Supports with four #8 x 1-1/2” wood screws.

2: Place the 1 x 5 x 52” Roof Finisher at the end of the roof assembly and fasten to the Roof

Supports with four #8 x 1-1/2” wood screws. Each side of the roof gets one Roof Finisher.

Tip: Use the Chimney and Dormers instructions in the appendix to build them. After putting in

three Roof Boards on the front roof STOP and then install the Chimney. Notice the mounting

block for the Chimney will get installed on the first Roof Board. Once all the Roof

Boards/Finishers are installed mount the Dormers as shown below centered on the roof.
