[QUOTE="KezBoy, post: 641378, member: 31589"] The Devon roof wasn’t the best design and was the first job I did when I took ownership as it was leaking badly. I replaced the flimsy aluminium and reshaped the roof using hardwood gently curved using a 3D printed guide to give I think a curve radius of 6.5m. I then used the flat 3D printed spacer to mount the vent all with the same curve radius. All rivets were closed caped with epoxy underneath to ensure all stayed watertight, water now runs off and has been fine for the last 3 plus years. I was pretty pleased with the result and the lifting mechanism works well with the stronger JK springs [/QUOTE]
