    Happy to see the roof over the bulk of my stacks didn’t collapse under the weight of 8” of heavy wet snow. This was the first test for it. In the second picture you can see where my natural spring never stopped flowing.

    It looks like it will hold far more than that amount of snow , I like those steel bracket at the top of the post.

    7-8” on the ground so far with a few hours of accumulation left. That gaping hole in my wood shed sure makes me feel uneasy. :jaw:
