Shed tear down

I have a fairly large/tall shed in my backyard with a gabled roof I’m looking to tear down. I’ve been trying to come up with a decent way to tear it down safely, the roof is my big concern. Are there any tips? It seems like the only way I’ll be able to remove the roof is by cutting the sheeting in sections from inside of the shed but I don’t know how I feel about standing under something I’m demolishing.

16x12 back deck span question

I’m looking to build a 16x12 back deck. I’m using the Lowe’s deck builder website and I just wanted to get clarification on if this plan looks ok. The deck will be attached to the house with a ledger board. The Lowe’s app is showing me that I only need 4 posts all about 11 feet from the house. Will that span be ok? The previous deck was a bit botched but it attached to the house ledger board but also had posts against the house as well as 4 posts 8 feet from the house.

Car license plate frame

Would anyone know where I could buy one of the “I won this car on the price is right” license plate frames? I have a racecar that still has the spot to bolt a license plate and I think it would be funny to have the frame on it when I take it out to the races!

Harley sat, won’t stay running

I have a 2002 Harley fxdwg, bought the bike a couple years ago. Took the bike apart to get painted about 18 months ago. Was just finally able to do the cam chain tensioners and fresh fluids and just reassembled the bike. First fire up the bike cranked over for about 10 seconds and fired up and idled fine (high idle) with the choke pulled all the way. After a minute or two of idling it stumbles a couple of times and dies and I couldn’t get it started again. Next day I try again and pull the choke all the way out and I barely even have to touch the starter for it to fire up but the same thing happens, after a couple minutes of idling it just stumbles and dies. I did try to play with the choke the second time I fired it up and it seemed like if I pushed it in at all the bike would want to idle down enough to stall so I kept the choke out all the way. I cleaned the filter that’s in the tank on the petcock before I reassembled and it looked mint other than a bit of discolouration. Any insight before I pull the carb off? I’m thinking pilot jet is probably gummed up. I don’t think the float would be stuck or else it wouldn’t have filled the bowl back up for the second time that I started it right? Much appreciated.

I have a 2002 wide glide, bought the bike a couple years ago. Took the bike apart to get painted about 18 months ago.

Bolt on oil pump pickup tube

Went to do an oil change, found a lock washer on my magnetic drain plug. Pulled the engine, got the pan off and found my pickup tube sitting in the bottom of the pan. Installed a new pump last year and used red loctite on all the bolts and the pickup tube still rattled loose. What are you guys using to stop this from happening? I’m thinking about just ordering some bolts with the head drilled for tie wire and wiring the bolts together.
