[RE-wrenches] Roof anchors and proper rigging

[William Miller]

Friends:

On steep metal roofs, we use roof jacks.  Of course you can't screw them 
into the roofing.  We fabricate metal ridge brackets to hold 2X6s onto 
which we attach roof jacks.  We have welded fall protection rings onto our 
brackets.

To put anchors in, we put a ladder against the gable and shinny across the 
ridge.

Two photos of this can be located
