Using a water jug and block of pine shavings as weights to help coax the sheeting into lying flat so I could attach the next piece.
Quick photo as I progressed over the camper. Notice the longer sheet... Read below for info on that one.
The final sheet! I attached it to the front of the camper first, then to the top. This way my front seam was level and correctly placed.

Just beginning to work the roof over the sides. Much more work to do with this, both in trim and refinement of the overhang.
View of the front from ground level. I purposely bought one ten foot long sheet (visible here in front) so that after trimming the excess I would have some aluminum left over to cover the old water heater hatch and other areas.
It was at this point, the winds were picking up and the sky was quite cloudy. I didn't dare do anything further on the roof today. I still had clean up work to do as well as take a trailer load to the landfill station again. The rains came about 3 hours later and are still going. I'm eager to check the interior out tomorrow to look for leaks. Here's hoping it's bone dry!
All for now,
Sam
