Fix the roof in place using 30mm nails spaced at approximately 300mm intervals. 
(Make sure the nails locate into the framework of the panels) 

Place the barge boards against the front and back of the 
shed. Make sure that these are in line with the roof sheet 
and meet at the apex. Fix each in place using 3 x 40mm 
screws.
