Britabreck,
Howdy from Central Texas!

I am a little Texan... I use 2x6 or 2x8 long enough to span about 6 inches either side of the "rib rivet line"... I lay down the kitchen drawer anti skid on roof then put down the boards. Now I can clamber up and reach out where I need to work. Move boards and anti skid to go along.

I have used fence boards to cover multiple ribs so I can move further.

Oh.. I dress out at about 260...
