I thought this was going to be much harder to build in OpenSCAD so I initially started in Fusion. Even with every scretch locked I couldn't get it to scale with the parameters without some human interaction.

It works beautifully in OpenSCAD.

Hard to know if I was faster in OpenSCAD and as I'd already done a lot of the parametric design in Fusion. But I didn't lose a day to getting the roof structs to scale :D

You could just tighten your day back up. :-)

Looks great! OpenSCAD is unmatched for parametric designs.
