The section on Covering a roof now has three subsections - tiling, slating, and other. then when i find out how to cut and drill my slates it can be in the wiki... ok? Certainly! (I expect there are two routes for cutting - the "proper" way with a little upstand metal "thing" and a large heavy blade that one uses to scissor off the edge with, and the traditional uk.d-i-y solution of an angle grinder!) -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

Good for cutting curves if you fancy a go at a fish scale look. mark |
