cover the top face of the binder 20.-
In Fig-'6 I have shown a section of-t-he binder 20'as'itis delivered to a job ready to In Figs-7 and 8 I ha-ve shownaya'lley construction wherein binders are pOS lr' tioned on the ends of the forms 12., These binders 50 are formed in the shape of an L and 5 include a base 51, a side wall 52 and a'plurality of teeth 58. When delivered the binders 501 are in'the for'm shown in Fig.
A valley construction in which the binders 50 are-used includes boards jpositioned on therafters 14 and having ast'rip'of composition roofing paper 56 laid over the boards.
The binders 5O arepositioned on the forms 12 so that the base 51 is inserted between the bottom of the forms and the roofing paper '56 and the side wall 52- abutstheends of the forms as shown at B" in Fig. 7. 'Aft'erbeing thus positioned the portion of the side wallwhich projects abovethe forms is hammereddown on top of the forms so'that the teeth 53 are embeddedin theforms as indicated at C in Fig. 7, thus firmly securing the binders 50' z to the forms 12. To facilitate theforming of the metal to the shape of the forms theside" walls are slit withakpair of tin s ips as indicated at D in F1g17; thuspreve'ntin g buckling of the metalwhen it is hammered. down.
After the binder 20 is secured to the forms the shingles 15 and :16 are laid on the forms and cover'the binder 50 as shown in'Figj7'.
. In Figs. 9 and 101 have showna modified ;;re1-m of valley 60. "This ValleySOQis formed wall 61, side W Zlls62 and a plurality of teeth 6.3 on each of the side walls 62.
jlhis valley60 is deliveredtoajob shaped as shown in Fig. 10 and is placed between the edges of the opposing formsso that-the side walls 62-abutthe endsjof' theIforms12-as" shown in Fig. 9. After beingcorrectly-p0 sitioned on the roof the portions of the side walls 62 which project abovethe tops of the forms1 2'are hammered over on top oftheon" the roof.
forms so that the teeth 63 are imbedded in the forms as indicated at E in-Fig. 9, thus firmly securing the valley 60to the forms. Before the projecting edges of the side walls 62 are hammered-down over the tops ofthe forms the side walls are slit with a pair of tin ships as indicatedat'FinFig. 9, thus preventing over the forms. 7
After the valley is secured to the forms the shingles '15 and 16 are positioned on the forms 12. Theseshingles cover the top portion of the valley in a manner similar to that shown in connection with the previously described valleyin Fig.7. i V i From the foregoing description-it Will be apparent that I have invented an improved.

2. In combination With a roof, a metallic extending outwardly valley, said valley-being formed U shaped. and includinga bottomwall and a pairof 3 side walls, said side walls being disposed at 7 approximately right angles-to said base and each of said side walls-including a' plurality of teethnorm'ally arranged at approximately right angles to sai'dsid-e Walls and extending a bottom wall and a pair-of: side walls,- said a i outwardly therefrom, said metallic valley being positioned in a roof-valley; and the portions of said side walls which projectnormally' upwardly being bent over the edges of said valley with said teeth imbedded in said said bottom and each of said side walls in eluding a plurality of teeth arranged atapproximately rightangles toi'sa'id side walls, and extending outwardly "therefrom; said inthe shape ofa U and includes bottom;
metallic 'vall'ey being positioned betweenithe opposing edges of said forms, the endportions of said side walls being bentover the V in said forms.
4. In combination with Li roof including.
rafters, sinuous decking on said rafters and sh ngles on said decking, a valley formed between opposing edges of said decking, a
"edgesofsaid'forms with Said teeth imbedded i plurality of teeth projecting from said side Walls, said side Walls engaging'fsaid decking, and initially projecting above-the top'surface of said decking and being bent over said decking to conform to the shape of said decking, said teeth when said side Walls are bent over said decking being embedded in said I decking, said bent portion of said sidewalls being adapted to be positioned under roofing shingles.
