hi! yes i did! i think the felt is not good around corners ,however will refelt with thin layer see if this does the job! cheers.
You could also use felt adhesive at the corners/edges, and this should help to keep it in place.

it does make me smile when someone asks for a cheap roofing material, and then in the same sentence, expect it to last 15 years, outdoors in all weather.
there are cheap felts and there are expensive ones. 'you gets what you pays for'.
stop being a tightwad and cough up the dollar!
will probably last 3 to 5 years with cheap mineral felt
my shed is the same size as yours and my neibour with a gas cylinder and around £160 worth of felt [base layer x1 mid layer x2 and top layer x2] should last 15 to 20 years so at £12.50 a year including a good whack for his trouble a lot cheaper than replacing it every 3 to 5 years
