How to attach weight bearing eye bolts to roof overhang?

I want to hang a narrow trellis from the little roof overhang on my patio, but there are no visible rafters. Do I use a stud finder and go looking for them? Or can I drill straight into what looks like Hardie board or plywood? Trellis and vine will probably weigh a max of 30 pounds. submitted by /u/Ojja [link] [comments]
