In Reply to: tin roof condensation posted by 37 chief on December 18, 2021 at 14:06:24:
The new building I had put up a year ago has a combination of ventilation and special roofing steel to eliminate the drip. The roofing steel comes with a thin layer of felt blown on the underside. It's purpose is to soak up the condensation so it does not drip. The condensation that is trapped in the felt is supposed to evaporate after the roof warms up. The building contractor recommended having an overhang with vented soffits on the building to keep air moving in the roof area to dry the felt. I agreed to a 24" overhang all the way around the building with a fully vented soffit and a six inch screened in gap on the top of the walls to keep birds out of the soffit. So far I am very happy with it, the building stays dry to the point of being dusty in any weather or season and I haven't seen one drip on any of the machinery inside the shed. The steel machine shed we have across the road rains on everything inside when the conditions are right and it never does get completely dry. Both buildings are dirt floor and sit on an elevated pad.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
