In this case, a 5-12-13 triangle (or doubled 10-24-26) might have worked better by giving you a longer side/end to work with. Either way, using a math formula to lay out the shed makes it easier and more accurate. I saw one guy laying out a shed by using a framing square and just looking down the sides!! Not very accurate. Thanks for bringing us along. Good luck on the build

Good thought. Didn't think about using a triangle larger than the building but you are right it would be more accurate.

Framing square would work a little faster then measure diagonal to double check your square.

@@kennylavay8492 The guy that I saw using a framing square didn't measure diagonals. He just sighted down the framing square and called it good. He was fast, I'll give him that
