overwhelmedorchidbuilder Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hello fellow miniaturists. I am finally nearing the completion of my Orchid, just in time for Christmas. Either tonight or tomorrow I will be ready to install the shingles. Do I glue on the roof ridge trim BEFORE or AFTER the shingles?? What has everyone else done for this? Thanks in advance!

Dalesq Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I also put the roof ridge trim, or ridge cap on AFTER shingling the roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I have only used the ridge trim on a couple of the kits I built. I always installed it last, after the shingles and everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GirlPiper Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I did mine last. More elbow room to work those final rows of shingles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I always add it last too. It's great way to give it a clean and finished look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
