Cover by 3/8" OSB, glued and screwed into place. Dave measured each hole and cut them out and they all matched...I have issues doing one.:R
In one sheet he had four to hit and each was on center!!!:B
He even gets them in place alone...needs no help...I do not offer, don't want to slow him down.

Getting ready to set the next board...221 on all ribs.
I was able to get some bubble insulation in places that covered wire holes and runs.

The improved insulation plus the new air space created by the new sloped roof will add some R-value...ANYTHING HELPS in an RV!!!
