Yesterday I started off really well cutting the holes with the router and template for the sockets.
In the afternoon I wanted to paint however I had decided I liked the look of French cleats for shelving so I went off and bought a sheet of 18mm plywood to make some.

I had used my track saw for four cuts so far so this was going to be a big test it took a long time as the saw kept sticking eventually I realised that a small grub screw had worked loose on the bottom of the saw.

Everytime I tightened the screw it worked loose again so in the end I gave up.
On a positive note the EDPM arrived exactly as expected and it is not quite as heavy as I was expecting Saturday seems to be the best day to put it up.
In preperation when i was at the wood yard I bought some wood for the edging trim I think I made a mistake.
The rafters are 150mm and there is a 50mm piece on top of that to provide the air gap so I asked for something to fill that gap. When he said the only timber they had 200mm was 32mm wide I just said that will be fine.
When he had cut it and brought it out to my car I realised it was way too big like OMG that is way too big I now have some timber for my work bench
