Ah, one final thing: The roof supplied with the kit is curved, which is fine. But the corners on the ends have been beveled, which is incorrect. Today I bought an X-Acto Medium Saw Blade. It's 4.5" long, 1" deep, 40-teeth to the inch, and .010" thick. It seemed like a handy thing to have. I'm wondering whether I can use it gently on the curved roof to get rid of the beveled ends without snapping the wood. If this is abject foolishness, feel free to warn me! Cutting off the ends will shorten the overhang but it should still be acceptable, if successful that is. Thoughts? Ideas?
