Installing a tiny house metal roof

Another project I have never done before was installing a tiny house metal roof. I had to do a lot of research since this isn't in my bucket of skills. I asked a lot of questions and watched hours of YouTube videos and saved one from the manufacturer. The first thing I did was I went with a rubber underlayment that withstands the heat of the metal roof. It also helps to insulate from the heat penetrating into the living space of the tiny house. It was about $100 a roll as compared to tar paper of less than half of that price.

I didn't get a lot of photos while the roof was going on, every day of the 3 days I was out there, it began to rain then it quickly turned into a thunder storm. The metal is very slippery when its wet so I couldn't do much until it dried up quite a bit. Even with the metal fairly dry, I would slip on the slightest amount of moisture and take a screw head across the knee cap. I could have selected standing seam for the roof but it was more expensive.

It's just about done except for the front pieces and the rear pieces of facia. Again if you look at the sky it was not a really nice week for the roof but the Tiny house is just about weather proof while I figure out the window and door placement.
