Thanks for the pics Andy, that's a lot simpler than mine.

I've only got some older photos with my old gear and before the pier
Had a few minor leak issues early on but have fix the centre flashing.
Its made of foam wall panel I had left over from a couple of jobs. Its got a R2 rating so it doesn't heat up during the day.
Made a simple lightweight rondo steel frame and screwed the panels on.
No rollers, just C Channel guides it slides on.
I like it because you can adjust the gap either way to a slit so in winter you stay quite warm.
With foam you could quite easily make it modular and dismantle it.
No real need to render but I did because i'll never move it.
I've rendered it with acrylic render and my wife had done some arty decorations.
You can also get roofing panel with colorbond iron already attached.
Good luck with the build.
Cheers
Andy
