CocoCabin - my new studio, shed, workshop build

I expect you're right that I've over-engineered the ridge board such that is could act as a ridge BEAM. The posts are still in place as part of the stud framing in the gable ends, but more to give bracing to the cladding than to support the ridge

I reckon that will be fine even if snow does melt, freeze then stick.

Firstly I should say if anyone professional or even competent starts asking too many questions, the illusion that I know what I'm doing is going to dissolve VERY quickly

Yeah but look at it! Man's clearly got skillz
