This is the Weekend of Roof, in which I get as much done of the tinker's wagon roof as I can in two days! Because I leave for Estrella in two weeks! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

So far I've gotten as much as I can get done up top -- literally, because I ran out of housewrap, tyvek tape, & staples all at the same time. Sometimes the universe says 'stop that' pretty clearly.

Now I'm working from the ground, cutting & painting some of the trim that'll run along the edges of the roof & hold the tarp down. It's involving some angle cutting that is DEEPLY no fun so I'm taking a little break to rethink what I'm doing, but I have an idea or two now.

discarded complex, decorative idea

discarded simpler idea

settled on 'hack up a couple 2x4s & call it good OH MY GODS

also put the trim along the back edge of the roof that'll hold down the folded-over edge of the tarp. that'll be the front edge while driving, so it's got to be extra-secure. that end of the roof is ALMOST road-ready now!

i am FUCKING EXHAUSTED pardon my anglo-saxon

tomorrow i'm gonna do the same with the left edge of the roof -- cut the edge of the tarp & fasten it down with trim -- & see if I can get part of the front wall done as well.
