Yeah, I am watching roofers putting on a new roof on my neighbors house. It
has a 12/12 roof and is very high, they are scurrying around wearing
sneakers and one little ladder, no safety gear, no safety ropes and
harnesses. I have been expecting one to slide off the roof any time, but so
far they haven't had an accident. I do believe they are working contrary to
local labor laws and contrary to the Workman's Compensation Act.

Not to mention common sense. OSHA calls for strips called chicken boards.
It's just a violation if you get caught, or someone goes to the hospital.

Spider man (R) web shooters?

I built a shed, years ago. In my ignorance, made a nice
12/12 roof. You better believe I used boards nailed on!
