In fact, the loggers were supposed to do it, the wood is already here. And I bought weights a while ago to sew onto that curtain, but I must have put them in a special place that even I can't remember where it is!Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05712893867575841432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-80428794985560075152009-12-09T15:36:25.807-05:002009-12-09T15:36:25.807-05:00Jordan,

Sometimes a heavy tarp inside over the wood would work for a temp fix..even until next spring, when you have a better chance to get up there and attack it. Perhaps the plastic over the doorway could have an addition of a heavy blanket (salvie find?) or a blanket with some weight sewed into the bottom to hold it down better...find one that has a pocket like a curtain rod would go through and stick some rolls of pennies in there for weight. We stick a sheet up in our hallway in the summer for the air conditioner to do the bedrooms for the short time that it is too hot here and the breeze will move it and let the cool out if we don't weight it.<br /><br />Woodshed door. I used to have a hook and latch..a LOOONG hook, on my basement door not to keep it shut, but to make sure it didn't shut and the cat and litterbox be apart. Don't know if that would work. Something at the Farm store might be long enough to be open and not flap in the breeze. But the wind with this storm..quite the doozy!Karen Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189370281390432351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-24554014308757976832009-12-09T15:24:13.493-05:002009-12-09T15:24:13.493-05:00I used roofing nails where I was attaching it to f...I used roofing nails where I was attaching it to fiberglass, and nothing (wedged a 2x4 on top) where I should have connected it to the metal roof. That's where I went wrong. I hired someone to repair my metal roof on the house for the same reason. Just didn't feel safe climbing on the roof myself.Thankfully my digital antenna is inside the house, otherwise I would have had the same problem as you!Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05712893867575841432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-60541157190409113462009-12-09T14:13:59.067-05:002009-12-09T14:13:59.067-05:00Just curious -- how did you attach the plastic to ...Just curious -- how did you attach the plastic to the roof? <br /><br />Learning about my roof is somewhere on my list. I have asphalt shingles, and a few have cracked. When the building inspector looked at the house, he told me how to replace them. Gets me a few more years with the old roof before replacing the whole thing.<br /><br />Wind in the country is different than wind in the city, where there is some shelter. I put up a tv antenna in the country (hired someone), and a month later it was tilting....<br /><br />There is always something!katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11478104766635836508noreply@blogger.com
