I am an Australian recently moved to Nth California. I wish to build a small 10*15 shed with a bullnose corrugated metal roof similar to the colonial style back home. I was told by a local manufacturer that I would have to pay a significant set up fee to bend the sheets. Where can I access such a small quantity of bullnosed corrugated metal roof at a reasonable cost?

As soon as I read your subject line, I knew there had to be an Aussie connection!
I love the bullnose roofing used in Australia. Unfortunately, I do not know of anyone making it here in the states.
The closest thing I know of would be www.flolinesystems.com
Good luck. You can also do an internet search for "curved metal roofing"

Well my experience in California shows that there is not such a thing as reasonable cost anything except our roofing materials. The only bull nose corrigated that I know about is still being made in PA from 100 year old dies but I doubt that it is reasonable in such a small quantity.
I would suggest going to a box store and buying some agricultural panel with a foaam closure strip to seal the eaves and if you want to keep it cool buy white and a vented eaves strip, but down under their metal roofing industry is much more mature than here. Good luck.
