(...) Yeah. I just made a roof---not too large---for a church (which was itself rather on the small side). I'd estimate that I used about 150 2x4 roof bricks, but I didn't even need to open my (only) 3444 to do the peak. But peaks, like a lot of the (...)

Just a heads-up that set 3444, (URL) black 2x4 roof peak pack, is sold out at S@H (in the US, anyway). There are still decent quantities available at BrickLink, but I wouldn't plan any large black roofs any time soon without bricks in hand. . . This (...)
