With the rafters on, things are getting a lot easier and quicker to complete. Next we worked on the felt and batten. The felt provides a waterproof barrier if any of the tiles crack - not essential, but useful. We then spaced the batten in rows 290mm apart as this is the right length for the tiles to overlap enough so theres lots of clearance. Ultimately the lugs on the machined tiles will rest on the batten, but will be hidden by the reclaimed, handmade tiles on top. I'll explain that better next time. Then we added aged oak feet onto the bottom of the rafters with traditional curved detail. These will be visible from the outside and is technically cheating....but a lot cheaper. We then boarded on top on top of this with 3 rows of green oak. This part is mostly aesthetic, but i think really looks incredible! Enjoy!
