The roof insert made it to the roof. It's held on with a crap ton of stainless steel 1/4" Allen button head screws. Copper rivets are too hard to find. lol
Contrary to yesterday's post, springtime in Minnesota means the possibility of freezing temperatures tonight. Do not plant flowers til mid-May around here.

Roof looks great Bob, if you had of used copper rivets, you would have had time to do all your yard work as well as finish all your other projects.

A couple set backs
Tuesday I was walking the dogs and I felt a little chest pain going up hills. So I stopped in to see the local doc. One ambulance ride later I was at the downtown hospital where a nice cardiologist put 4 brand new shiny stents in my coronary arteries. Two a half days and I'm home. Not supposed to do much for a little while..
I put gas in the tank on the Bantam and it leaked. It's a stailness steel tank and the weld is leaking around the outlet bung. New tank arrived today and I can send the leaky one back.
I won't be touching anything for a week or so.

Well Bob, that sure puts the virus #2 in the order of health issues. Stents are good, us old dudes seem to collect them. Glad you were able to get treatment & are back home in better shape. Do take it easy for a while, it does matter, I speek from experence buddy. Like FBP said those hot rods will be there when you feel better. Dixie & me are thinking about you, get well.

You (or your Mrs.[ddd ) were smarter then the majority. I was told by my Drs. that too many people (Mostly men. [ddd) ignore those warning signs.
Heal up and you will be back to it in no time.[cl

Wow, glad you got checked out and fixed up quick Bob! You are an inspiration to me, I'm not as old as you but when I get to feeling bad and just want to sit around, I think, hey, if Bob W can still do this stuff at his age, me being younger I can, too. [cl Take it easy a few days like the Dr says and let those new pipes get tuned in!
