POLISH

You don't have to be 70. I will admit I did fall off my roof. Incident with an extension ladder. That's a big 9 feet. Took over a week for the bumps and bruises to heal and I was lucky, no breaks. I have a healthy respect for ladders and roofs.

Thanks, Stephen - I saw them too, and none of them looked like the weighed in at 225 lbs. so I'm a little wary of testing the top - I'll figure it out!

I think a gantry crane would be nice, but it's a little beyond my budget.  

Hmmmm - maybe putting a 2x board across the width so it sits on the side framing, then sitting on that board - that might work.  

Can't say for you, but I waxed the whole top and then took a buffer to it.  Came out really nice, but now a few months later, it needs washing again.  How did I get the wax on the roof and buff it?  I got onto the roof and sat there kind of sideways with my legs extended, then slid, more correctly slithered, around.  I didn't hear any awful cracking noises or have any leaks afterward, so I guess I didn't break anything.  And, I'm no feather weight.
