@@martinbrice9802 Hi Martin. Line up all, (or 20 at a time), the lengths of timber that have been cut to the desired length. (looked about 600mm in the video). Then stack them tightly together, (the widest dimension vertically), on that lovely flat work bench by screwing the end two down into the bench. (you could also drive some wedges in between one of these to really pack all the others in tight, or a pair of long sash clamps would be idea) Now, pressuming that the bench is nice and flat, (if its not you could run battenes under each edge, not dissimilar to the jig in the video), and the timber is all the same size, you then mark your birdsmouth position on each end one and draw this line across the top of all of the stacked pieces. Now you set your circular saw to the pitch of the roof and its depth to the depth of the plumb cut, and just run it down one of the lines. Now set the saw to the seat cut, and its depth, and run it down the other line. BOOM. What you end up with is a load of stacked lengths of timber with a groove cut through them.😎 A 45 degree roof be the easiest, and this method would be limited to maximum angle your saw could be set to. (most saws now go over to 55 dgrees, so this would work with pitches down to 35 degrees). Super fast and super accurate.👍 I hope I've made sense.

@@Starwars0405 I can't speak for all roofing businesses in Germany but at least for mine it was different. I had a 2 week internship where I was watching my colleagues how they move on the roof. During that time it was not allowed for me to go on the roof. After the 2 weeks I was a helper for a few months and they let me go on the roof. Now I'm in training. So it was just for my internship. The only reason why I was not allowed on the roof was because I had no accident insurance which is a must have. Otherwise you are mostly useless when you're not on the roof.

At 8:20 no commentary, but noticed he puts in double layer of tiles probably to lift the final tile above the gutter. The underside has a batten fixed just under the last batten and has a tile cut and nailed to match the tile length above it. Starts with a tile and half from the hip up to the valley with a 45 degree cut to meet the tile on the other side. All are then covered by the last tile above. Membrane is over hanging but with eaves support tray can be cut flush with last tile to prevent UV degradation. The tray will deliver the rainwater into the gutter.
