I have never done a standing seam roof before.
Link to Hisman
I am building a sq ft workshop.
I thought a standing seam roof was out of my budget &#; and it is if I have a contractor install it.
They I found a standing seam roof that can go over purlins &#;.. $7K to sheet the roof &#; $ if I put 2 x 4&#;s every 24&#; &#;.. that brings the metal roof in line with a standard shingle roof.
I found roofing that is snap lock so I don&#;t need to worry about a machine to seal the seams.
My only issue it the two long seams at the start and finish of the roof &#; a 37 ft long hem!
I watched all the videos &#; looks like they use a rolling bender to get the 90 &#; then a disc bender to get it over the rest of the way.
There tools are expensive and once I do the 4 hemmed edges, I will not need them again.
I called a few rental places &#; no one has one to rent.
I looked on ebay and facebook marketplace &#; no cheap version of the tools and no used ones for sale.
So, my question, can I make this bend any other way?
I thought about using the 18&#; bender I will need at the bottom of each panel and going along with it but I was worried it would leave a mark at the end every time I move it.
Here is a link to some videos of he project of youtube: workshop videos
Here is a link to a post I put up yesterday showing the shop: facebook post
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
