Reply To: Roof wood replacement- Steel Strapping

[Bill Lyons]

Back to the roof. This is a picture of one of the bows out of my project roof. I has been warped but has the correct ends. To duplicate it I anchor the two ends of the strapping and put an adjustment block in the middle. Then I adjust the strap (via the middle block) until I get what looks like the correct arc., then trace it on the wood replacement stock.
