eaves post Explanation: The 'Saumschwelle' is the horizontal beam at the top of a wall where a new floor (Stockwerk) or the roof itself begins above. The only applicable "Saum" found for the roof area would be the "eaves". Likely best to stick with fascia board as you suggest... :)  -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2020-03-24 09:59:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I also notice an "eaves lath" listed as "Saumlatte" or "Saumlade".... although your term does point towards "post".... |
