a big Duh!
Take a deep breath and start over.
Your video shows just how hard it is to film and explain this. Good effort. My advice to anyone is to watch several different videos. Bit by bit it all clicks. Also a phone app gives you all the information about rafter lengths.
Huh?
whats with the negative comments people. This guy knows what hes talking about and obviously has a lot of experience. It comes easy to him thats the people to learn from.
I don’t know who’s worst , him or his cameramen, all over the place.
Way too confusing!
What's with the kids in the background screaming bloody fucking murder. Jesus.
This is not a simplification.
If you learn to read the framing square, it will tell you exactally how long the rafter has to be cut from end to end. The cut out should be the same width as the outside wall which in most cases is 3.5 inches.The framing square has all the numbers for the length of the rafter for the pitch you choose to use.
Does he really need a toolbelt on to explain this to us
Hope your not a school teacher
What about the rise height for the ridge board??
I watch a lot of video an it is of my opinion that you made it easy with the step method and figuring the math became easier
sorry but this was made way too complicated
Confusing
Better off explaining one way clearly
your correct with your method and I've done 100s of times so I understood but I think where people lost you is with the speed square I use only the carpenters square with rafter clips also in the end you should have shown cutting for the ridge pole but you do know how to lay out a rafter
I didn't understand a word you said
Sorry fella but your not good at explaining things
