hi folks,
A friend has just moved into a house that and has a 12ft x 6ft aluminium lean-to that he wants to get rid off. Now, I wouldn't mind having it and putting it in my garden, but I won't be able to have it as a lean-to. I'd like to put it along the garden fence, but not have the fence as the wall side, if you follow. What I was thinking of was creating a shed like wall for the fence side, and then creating a ridge for the roof and have it meet the shed like wall. Hope thats clear! Do you think it's possible?
The difficult part is creating a ridge and then a short sloping part for the shed wall. I have a small aluminium greenhouse that I can canabalise for parts & glass, but the difficult part is the ridge. Anyone have any ideas? I seem to recall polycarbonate roofs (the kind used for conservatories and carports) use glazing bars that are similar.
any ideas are welcome . Thanks.
