How to install eaves on steel frame home

This video goes into detail on how to install eaves on a steel frame home.
Storm talks through the process and then there is a close up video showing all the details. We found the eaves quite tricky to get right initially, but the sheet lifter was a game changer in the end!
It meant that Matt could install the eaves himself.
And to install the eaves, he:
--fixes up the rivets on the sprockets
-- marks the placement of the sprockets on the cladding,
-- measures width and cuts to fit - leaving not much wiggle room so that eaves go up tight
-- cuts plastic connector piece to fit width and join sheets together
-- uses sheet lifter to maneuver and put sheet in place
-- screws sheets in place using spacer and markings on cladding

Eaves, they're necessary but oh so time-consuming to install. Save your sanity, get a sheet lifter!

Again great video, Storm. The captions certainly made it easier to follow. Glad I managed to assist!!! One more big job down. Well done Matt....no wildlife there.

Love these easy to follow videos:) I'm buying land in NSW in one month to owner build and will be doing everything by myself. (I hope I can find someone to sign off on my electrical and plumbing)...

[@TheHousethatMattBuilt]

Thanks! Glad you're finding them useful :) V exciting starting your owner build in a month! Will your council need to see your plans?

@@TheHousethatMattBuilt .... I'm going to use The ShedCompanys kit called Country Estate, they have guarantied council approval for their plans:). I haven't found land I like yet, there's always some problem like too expensive,too small,dodgy neighborhood or no internet.
