One piece roof material protecting drip edge

A continuous one-piece apparatus for the protection of roofing materials from weather elements comprising:

• a base that attaches to a roof, said base having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first side with a second side parallel to said first side, a third side that is proximate the edge of said roof and a fourth side that is parallel with said third side and that is distal the edge of said roof;
• a first panel that is attached to said third side that extends downward from said base at angle so that said first panel is substantially vertical, said panel being substantially planar and transitioning in a second panel that angles away from said panel;
• a third panel that is on the opposite side of said second panel that is exposed and from which water drips;
• an exposed fourth panel that extends upward from said third panel and that is substantially parallel with said first panel;
• a lip extending upward from said fourth side of said base and extending in a direction toward said third side of said based thereby creating an open space between said base and said lip;
• a top panel that extends from said exposed fourth panel in a direction away from said exposed fourth panel wherein said top panel is substantially parallel with said base leaving a space between said top panel and said base for the placement therein of roof material.
