Sounds like good progress!
I installed the 2 corner wrap poop boards/roosts I built a couple of days ago. Filled the trays with PDZ. I'm not entirely happy with them, but hopefully they will make cleanup better this winter when the birds will probably stay inside more. I should have made them a little bit deeper, but they are ok. I think some of the chickens are a bit afraid of them and waited until dark before going inside.
I used PolyWall on the poop boards/trays to make it washable and prevent the wood from getting wet. I only put trim on the outer edges, but found when I installed the boards that there were slight gaps and some of the PDZ ran out. So... I cut some lengths of trim a bit long and wedged them along the back wall.
The (2) boards/roosts are just leaned together on the garage floor in the photos.

I have been following the thread. My brother is building me a pigeon loft to my design. Most of the principle of coop building apply I think. I'm especially trying to get the ventilation right. It's going very slow but coming along well imo. If anyone wants to take a look there is an album called 'loft build' on my profile page. 
. But the price is right and he does good work, imo.
