    Who doesn't enjoy watching a craftsman. Doesn't matter what they are making, it's always fascinating.

    I suppose one must use his scraps somewhere, but rather I would lay a sheet of 16oz. copper on this eave and do it in one hit. Use the scraps for bird houses or step flashings. And I would say by the amount of solder you used that one could have done this in a few moments with sheet lead at the same or less cost, labor and materials considered. At the moment I am teaching my 13 year old about roof to wall flashing for his bedroom that I "made" him build. We are using lead sheet for that, so wonderful in its malleability. Nice to see dad and son working together here too. I hope he remembers our days and learns from it.

    You and Jimmy do the best videos. I had a dad like yours and Jimmy that knew how to do all these nearly lost skills. I have an old soldering iron that was my grand dad's. watching these videos take me back to being a kid and helping my dad. I loved learning this stuff, and more importantly, learning to not be afraid to try. Thanks again for the videos!

    Ah, it takes me back to my roofing days. But i dealt more with double lock standing seam copper and Zinc panels. I actually miss it. Course we did large panels and had a machine with rollers to profile the panels. Used CNC sheet metal break to make the various bits of flashing. But i can remember make some panels like that. Rarely did i get out of the shop and help install the panels. We always called the pliers platypus or Duckbill pliers. But i guess that's a southern term.
    Just watching the end i get the smell of the resin and solder filling my nose.

  • @simonforget280
    @simonforget280 7 лет назад +3

    That is really interesting. It is almost the same approach that my ancestors used build their roofs. As far as I know, it was only used in Quebec and it's locally known as "tôle à la Canadienne" (in the early days of the colony, Canada was used by then to designate the French colonies of Quebec and Acadia).
    Anyway, rather than using copper, they used tin (sheet metal) in a similar way, sloped at a 30 degree angle and not soldered. Depending on what kind of tin they had, each row could or not be equal. These roofs were waterproof and that's really the purpose of it.
    With regular maintenance, a roof would last an hundred year, sometimes more. Every fifteen to twenty years, you had to paint that roof.
    A couple roofing contractors still practice this art here. I know at least two of them that will refuse other jobs only to build or restore one of these roofs.
    Keep on your good work.
