for me, i leave one of the gables in place and overhang the roof slightly so when it rolls on everything ets covered nicely, the back of the observatory i have the gable rolling with the roof and it slightly overhangs the rear wall. there are pictures and a video in my signature. the observatory has stayed dry as a bone throughout many heavy rain storms, it exceeded my expectations.
