That is something I am considering as an option too , but it would be a 4 man job lifting a roof of the size I want I think , unless it could be lifted on one end onto the two rails , then slid and lifted from the other end. which would make it a 2 or 3 man job.

The shed bloke said about $180 for his crew to assemble one of their complete sheds pnce a slab had been layed (about 3 or 4 hours he reckoned) , maybe I might assemble the roof on the ground , unclad , and then call that guy and ask him to come and lift and clad it .... that'll save my back .... and would probably be money well spent.
