This metal trim is so wide, you need 1x8 fascia to attach it to. While that size of fascia is typical on a house, it is not even close to what a person uses for a DIY shed's gable design.
For my current needs and my future projects, this trim is a waste of money.
Since there is only one bend in the gable trim piece, the most you can do is cut off a sizable width of one side to bring it down to scale with your project. Your still wasting alot of metal.
Another solution, however, came in the form of the Eave trim piece. While it also was very large and out-of-scale for a non-house project, the eave trim has 2 bends in it which allows you to cut it in half length-wise. That way you end up with a manageable eave trim size and an acceptable useable gable trim piece.
Overall, the quality of the metal is very good ... and my metal woodshed roof looks GREAT ...
but sadly, the gable trim remains unused, and therefore a poor choice for projects smaller than a house or garage ...
Pros: Economical
Cons: Too Big
