I have seen synthetic used on both residential and commercial jobs I’ve been on as well as residential applications I know of from friends and enemies. It seems to be good stuff. The fact that it is a shed roof makes a difference because of heat and venting. I spent 15 years in the residential game and seen varying results from various products. No roofing material is what it once was because all the good stuff is bad for us. I don’t know the cost of synthetic v. Tar paper, but personally would not be afraid of synthetic. The pink stuff is red rosin paper and is meant as a buffer between wood floors and sub floors. Not for roofing applications. The last generation put it behind wood siding as well, they also would use tar paper in that same application. Because you are in a fairly mild winter climate area ice-n-water on the bottom and synthetic on the rest sounds sensible. The fact that I have a 120 year old corn crib in central Minnesota mean I fight a different battle. The story and a half knee wall with hand framed rafter doesn’t allow me adequate insulation or more pertinent adequate venting. If you are not heated, have an open attic, and can vent enough it will prevent moisture and heat build up under your roof/ shingles and won’t rob them of life. I’m gonna get grief for this, but when we reshingled the old school house at Junkshow we did not use tarpaper. We took off cedar shingle and reinstalled cedar shingle using half lap on each row applied to spaced oak roof boards. Why. Because a fellow club member and long time carpenter had recently tore off 2 year old cedar shingles applied over a fully ice-n-water roof deck which didn’t allow it to breath and the cedar rotted from the underside.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
