I didn't want to bother with that. Wanted to make it as easy to build as possible so I ran the stainless steel cable through the roof so that it can slide up. There is a triangle piece at the top of the lid on both ends making the lid fit nice and snug over the two sides.

Pretty simple build. Bought a 4' x 8" x 3/4" piece of Cedar and used almost every bit. I didn't want a 3/4" thick roof so I cut the length and then ripped the board into two 5/16" thick pieces. Worked out nicely.
