You are making me feel better, Ursula. Thanks, Lindsey.
This morning I discussed removing an existing 12" eave that overhands the 32' long roof. Plus there is still a 6" gutter that will have to go there as well. I think the glass will look a lot more "finished", more seamless, if we cut that roof/rafters back to the beam so that there is a straight line from the glass to the roof. I don't mind there being a 6" wide gutter, particularly since I see no way around having it at the roof's edge. I am all into the final esthetics of this room. I know I am driving my contractor crazy with my "suggestions". If he had gotten me detailed exterior elevations like I asked (long ago), this all could have been determined some time back. I know why I never got those elevations. This project is being planned day-by-day.
