ive pulled the old rotten roof off my shed :d

im thinking of replacing it with plyboard but cutting a square hole in the middle for a large sheet of plastic like a sunroof for a shed lol, that way when im messing about in there i wont always need the lights on, so really its a energy saving device lol


what do you think lol

I like it! Wouldnt it be cool if a roof was like a convertable car and you could press a button to change if it was on or off?

Can you not just buy some translucent corrugated plastic sheeting and do the whole roof with it? When you start trying to make removable sunroofs joined to wood its gonna let water pi$$ in every shape.

Edit- at least wait til mowgli comes along with good advice on how to do it properly. Lol

Just do it in bitumen sheeting, cheap and waterproof if you do it right
