Well, major progress today - despite raining non-stop. Never knew how much fun welding in the rain can be.
In answer to tandum's question about raising the roof - it was a job for the does-everything farm tractor - with a little help. Did one side at a time and didn't drop it once.
Here's some before and after shots of the old rollers that have been replaced by the "after" photo rollers and rail system. I can now move the roof with two fingers - yahoo.
I've included a "detail" shot.
