Finally a day without rain. Nice, pleasant day today.
Anyhow, this pic is of the rear of the roof. When I put the 1/4" plywood on, originally, I added a little extra overhang at the back.
The red arrow points to where the last roof joist is, and everything to the left of those screws, is just kind of "hanging" there, as in an overhang. Yes, I have plans for that overhang later.
However, the yellow arrow points to where I slid this last piece of plywood in under the next piece. Therefore, there is a 1/4 in difference in height where the yellow arrow is.
I need to cover this last piece with another piece of 1/4 inch plywood, so the roof is level.

Let me tell you, having a curved roof, has been both a blessing and a curse, if you know what I mean.
It is definitely much easier to work with square, flat surfaces. Since the sides are rounded, and this last piece slopes downward a little bit, it's a bit of a "trip" to get the plywood to fit correctly. Hey, I did it. I have no one else to blame but myself.
