    Hmmm I was thinking I could do this until you got talking about packers and lost me entirely. Would've been great to video the packers thing. Still excellent nonetheless, I think if I can at least make the hole in the roof and reinforce, I'll be able to spend less on the carpenter to install the rest for me!
