Simple Barn-Style Roof Overhangs  It’s always best if a building’s roof extends out past the line of its walls.  An overhang of even just a few inches will push the flow of rain runoff away from walls, doors and windows, and make them all more durable.  Here's how to build  simple roof overhangs that look good and work well on sheds, barns and garages. 

How Big Should Your Shed's Cupola Be?  As you search the web to find the perfect cupola for your garage, shed or barn, you’ll see that many retailers use the same formula to help you find the correct size. It’s easy to remember: for each foot of length of the main ridge of your building, a cupola should be at least one inch wide at its base. The base dimension is usually how cupolas are sized and sold. So, using the formula, a garage with a 24’ ridge should have a cupola that’s 24” wide, or larger, at its base. Easy to remember, right? The problem is that the formula is often wrong.
