The other thing is to make the length and width in multiples of 3. The metal sheets are 3 feet wide and it works out better this way. One more thing: keep it square. An old-timer is helping me and guiding me. He is 81 and I had to make him get off the roof and let me drive those screws in. I hope I do half as well at that age. Good luck.
