Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Thanks. They are great to have. That one isn't mine. This aluminum was .040". That brake is for heavier bending and is 14'6" long. I have an 8'6", 10'6", and a 12'6". I think .032 (heavier gutter stock) is pushing it on mine. .024 is what the trim coil stock is I normally bend. That thicker metal made it harder to get a good fit on the end caps.

At home I've been re-doing the window sills at the porch roofs. The windows barely fit between the upper soffit and the roof, so the sills are integrated with the roof flashing. I've replaced the shakes with metal roof, so that's why I'm changing the sills. The way I did them before ended up holding some water, so doing some improvement on that as well.

The rain runs fast out of the upper downspouts across the metal roof, so I made some deflectors out of the old copper drip edge
