Hi, while I do not know the original building, I particularly like the way you did the roof construction, as that is an approach that I have been considering for my buildings for quite some time. The obvious drawback is that you can only build (...) (16 years ago, 3-Jul-08, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)
