How can I do that with double hips

[@janicesmyth2183]

now this is a man who knows how to teach ! My grand kids went through a few rafter video's and this is the only one they've found that shows a close up of the bevel cut. Thank you and god bless!

[@helloharris4]

Finally a great explanation on cutting hip rafters to nail facia boards. I have to sister joist additional material onto my rafters to lengthen and meet where the facia will nail. Thank you. Well done.

[@liamjohnny335]

Nice mate...I like u show when u made a mistake..we are all human..the rafter fits well ..keep on recording buddy

[@aleblanc3547]

There's just something about a circular saw zipping through framing lumber that makes me happy. It's looking great, Bob! :>)

[@doublewide6]

There is a whole skill set to using a circular saw. I do feel very skilled on a tablesaw, but I could use some more practice on a circular saw.

[@benblaney5247]

That block layer website is amazing thank you sir

[@Sgtzo2017]

Did you jack rafters line up over your studs 16oc?

[@livinglifeexploring]

Great and very informative video. Quick question I noticed in the beginning of the video when you were using your framing square you said you have to put it to 17”. Why is it 17”?is it always 17” no matter what the pitch is? for example your cutting a 4/12 hip roof would you still put it to 17” on the framing square? Any info helps I would greatly appreciate any feed back thanks again

[@salpacheco2532]

I actually did learn something though. Making the cheek cuts on one side of the board instead of having to flip mark and cut the opposite side. Thanks!

[@LSummers95]

At 1:58 when you start to say about making 3 parallel lines, is the distance you separate the lines the thickness of the rafter I.E if you were using a thicker or slimmer rafter would you change the line distance or still use 3/4”? Thanks for any info...👍

[@fishon8406]

Yes you would have to increase the distance accordingly for a thicker board. A typical 2x4 is 1 1/2" thick. You are creating with this cut - 2 equal sided isosceles triangles. The equal sided legs of the triangle for a 2x4 cut this way, are 3/4". A 2" thick board would use 1" spacing on the lines to get the point of the two cuts to be in the middle of the board. Draw it out on paper and you'll see.

[@arkansas1336]

You did a very good job (actually an awesome job) with this video! As a roof framer from the 1960's, I had to use the framing square, I didn't have the benefit of the speed square or internet. But it was all good. ....13

[@truckguy6666]

Coming up in the 90s and 2000s we used a squangle extensively for roof cutting

[@mmarte1622]

Ty. You used just 2x4?

[@interman7715]

You did a great job on this tricky subject ,all the best buddy .

[@viktorzvrn12]

Thank you. How to calculate the corner rafter if the outline of the house has angles not 90 degrees?

[@cuttheknot4781]

Sistered together Pallet lumber to make wall studs? That's some awesome WT Frankencobblery if I ever saw it. Nice!

[@czellner5894]

I have never been good at doing accurate angle cuts with a circular saw. Wonder if there's a way to fab fixture. Thanks

[@doublewide6]

I'm sure there is, but making it adjustable would be the hard part.

[@PawPaws_Place]

practice, practice, practice...Im sure you'll get it.

[@altec2k2k]

This was very informative. Thanks. Weird question what do you do in a case where the roof run is longer then any board available? Would you just join two boards together?

[@Jay-tk7ib]

Yes, butted end to end, and gussets over the joints. Then you will build a purlin wall beneath.

[@garvolt]

The square showed 8 not 7 as you mentioned in the video starting off. Any reason or is it just the camera?

[@bobpriestley3267]

What is the name of the website you mentioned that provides the plans?

[@jaygonzalez4540]

Bob Priestley watch it again you dumbass

[@donegalireland3336]

Would love to see that hip offered up. Do you not allow for dropping or backing the hip to allow the common to run through. Such a pity you over cut the heel and seat cut.

[@thomasdoherty7840]

Hello Donegal, This Guy is more of a handy man and I know a lot of wood chippies who wouldn’t get as far as he did, but from your comment you know the craic

[@roxydog2004]

Check out a little (old school) with Larry Haun he's got a few vides out... How to Build Floors, Walls & Roofs.

[@paulrose1502]

3 16 pennys Thats the code! Lol

[@togodbetheglory9725]

I m building a gazebo 14x16 with a hip roof & I m leaving a 2 f overhang do you know what's the length of my rafters should be..??

[@Jay-tk7ib]

It depends on the pitch of your roof.

[@mac33y47]

I have a roof with a vally wity no hip or vall frameing. Im repairing the roof but can't lay the plywood

[@bacardiman730]

How did you set your ridge board?

[@Alsky11]

The ridge gets set in the exact center of the structure

[@BrucesShop]

OK My shed is simple. 8 feet by 12 feet with a 4 in 12 pitch 2 side roof no hip. Good for you.

[@doublewide6]

I am having fun with this project Just finished today more videos to post. Kind of funny how the Walmart crank had a plastic gear how much money can they really be saving?

[@BrucesShop]

I thought it may just be that vintage of motor. maybe not.

[@petefroud5308]

Great work Bob . Coming along well.

[@doublewide6]

All done now about 4 more videos on it to post yet.

[@n2o4me]

Thanks for uploading , very informative !

[@doublewide6]

No problem. Thanks for your feedback.

[@luismendoza363]

Absolutly great info very simple easy to understand Thank you very much!!!!

[@jamesstacey4163]

over cutting is always frowned upon, a strong heal HT does wonders and an in creases the strength of your tail but ur structural value is in the scarf cut. so I would only jig the seat cut if it's exposed like cedar

[@ozzstars_cars]

good explanation

[@doublewide6]

Thanks man.

[@geezerdombroadcast]

Good job. Have fun lighten up, live longer. Carpentry is a tough life, you must have humor or you'll never survive.

[@DaleB809]

love your channel..when will you be making a video on the machine you use to make gaskets

[@doublewide6]

It will take a while, but I will get to it. Thanks for requesting. Bob

[@capt.Justin]

Thanks man

[@dougdorite3581]

You overcut your bird's mouth weakening the tail capacity weakening the edge of your roof

[@Paul-IE-Repairs]

lots of saw walk as well

[@aniton11aniton11]

W. Adams this May be right in principle but not the way to go when you have novices learning from these videos. That birdsmouth should have been cut shorter..

[@triciaburbank2195]

Hey;) I really need this video but installing around a 30" diameter tree.Thx

[@marcocamacho4624]

How much is the dimensions of the structure

[@williamevans6554]

Thanks for the good explanation you helped me alot.

[@lablover3112]

looks great for one thing you over cut the birds mouth. I like to cut to the point and finish with a hand or jig saw

[@dallashopkins884]

I noticed that too. He wasn't all too bashful about it either, he was pretty aggressive. And a 2X4 at that. That looked like a pretty nice size shed. I would have used a 2X6, at the minimum!

[@lablover3112]

I would too but a hip roof is stronger

[@pogstyle1833]

Watch the over cutting of the birds mouth, Most building codes (depending on area) require a minimum of 2/3 the board height above plate “HAP” or area above the birds mouth. Other than that, it was an excellent video

[@gervaciolopez4920]

Common Sense Survival HIP-HAP

[@mauricehall8147]

lab lover agree, I learned you actually weaken the wood by over cutting. Don’t over cut, I could be wrong though./?

[@johnshea8675]

Man everyone needs to chill out... stop being so serious. this guy is a landscaper and does small engine repair professionally and everything else he learns as he goes. if you know how to do something better than post a video of it how to do it perfect. i can guarantee you that someone will still think they know more than you and of course point out all the mistakes you made. His videos are simply just to give you some basic guide lines, but he always says hes not a professional and to do your own research beforehand. Why do you think he has a disclaimer right above where our comments are. has anyone EVER actually read it because if you have than you wouldn't post up the shit you do. He has helped me tons with many different projects and anything he says hes not perfect at I find a video of who someone who is as well as either call companies or go to stores. so everyone just needs to relax and take a chill pill and enjoy his videos for what they are and not what you think they are. also its funny how all these people can type out how shitty his work his and how it is supposed to be done, yet, no one person has posted a video link with their shit talking post about his work as to how to do it perfect. I can promise you that if you do than someone watching will tell you how you also did something wrong or that your work looks like shit. so easy to sit behind a monitor acting as if you know everything, but nothing to back it up with. all complete dumb asses... this guy has helped me with so many engine repairs, house repairs and many other things.

[@fixitwithzim]

Looking great buddy, nice work

[@doublewide6]

Thanks Zim!

[@snwlcke3]

2x4 for rafters????

[@naturalmystics-kd9vt]

Nice job thank you for sharing

[@mrorange5205]

good size pool shed

[@doublewide6]

Yup just put the fridge in it tonight.

[@saigonslim]

Good video. Thanks

[@lynndenham9109]

Never seen corners framed that way?

[@akuleana]

Thanks for the video.

[@jamesstacey4163]

after all if it's getting sistered to a joist covered with sofit an hidden with drywall you will not see it and again the value is where it's sitting

[@thetessellater9163]

The birds mouth cut on the power saw is not recommended - you have seriously weakened the load bearing capacity by cutting deeper than is necessary! Use a hand saw, or band saw if available. The rest is good, though.

[@DavidSmith-cb9yo]

Not trying to troll you doublewide6 but I agree with tessellater on this , the birds mouth on any rafter should never be overcut . Cut to line with circular saw and finish with a jig saw, hand saw or sawsall. Good job on the lay out and cheek cuts.

[@mikeso5963]

If common pitch is 7, hip/valley won't be 7, right?

[@VictorRamirez-uc7rv]

Hey mike so when you do common 7 obviously make your valleys and hips 7 as well

[@mauricehall8147]

7/17... 7/12 is all common

[@jonbalocco5298]

You look like Scott Salmon...The Guy I grew Up With....God was he "Dangerous!!!!"

[@salpacheco2532]

Excellent. There’s only 1 thing I didn’t like. Over cutting the bird’s mouth weakens the rafter especially with such a short tail. Great explanation though.

[@michaelpalmer937]

it sounds so old when he says all his dimensions in imperial measurements, feet and inches, the . Construction industry in United Kingdom went to metric in 1967...l just about remember it from my school days in early 60s..been a Carpenter/ joiner NOW 42 yrs... Used to do roofing work in London and all through Europe, not NOW 2 things why not .... The industry now as all ready made A frames, second, l got more sense not to go climbing struggling and clambering around on rooftops. once a Carpenter always..we never die ..just fade away , like water down a sink ............................. English Mik

[@gazdale4676]

I still work in imperial mate and I'm 36! There are still traditional roofs going up in sheffield, usually on private houses and extensions. I find metric a bit confusing

[@miqueaspromontorio3]

That speed square has a seat cut line on it

[@mrmuskey5202]

I use a hand saw or Jig saw to cut Birds mouth. Skill saw weakens the wood

[@paulrose1502]

In england Its called a compound mitre cut

[@christopherscola6790]

Thank you.

[@robertshields5541]

This is a guy you want to teach you how to cut a rafter

[@jasonpink6362]

Thanks!

[@evertorres2833]

gracias amigo!!!

[@dougdorite3581]

Your measurement of the rafter length is off you should have brought the line out to you first line you drew and Plum down to that if you cut it like you got it now you're bored is going to be short

[@kirkdunn1379]

Th as exactly what I thought when he scribes his measurement line with a square straight........all lines have to be on 7/12 bcuz that is plumb .....his board is gonna be short......

[@houma1984]

me encanta la cierra de este bato , pero lo que no ,me gusta ees que mnucho anuncio gracias por el web site

[@lucasespinoza6885]

[@scrfirefighter]

Please make a video on what I need to know about women! I just can't figure them out. LOL

[@Jay-tk7ib]

Stay away from them. That should be all you need. LOL

[@joewaligator4364]

Fuckin A dude. Thanks a lot!!!

[@lynnedgar501]

Please fix your camera positioning, your not showing the square just you marking lines that we all know how to do. show what's important by either moving your sork area or your camera or mark your camera view area on a flat surface and always move what your working on. Rather being out of camera frame.

[@juzbullet]

dont this bloke have a handsaw !

JUST REMEMBER....1948 + 70 YEARS = 2018....This is the year....IT ALL UNRAVELS.....Trust Me....The Show is about to Begin !

[@cameravideo1230]

?

[@michaelmontgomery5326]

very sloppy work ! your bird's mouths should have been finished with a jig saw that circular saw cut weakens the rafter tail and simply looks sloppy. you could also have used a hand saw to finish the bird's mouth.

[@johnshea8675]

so where is your video to show us how to do it the "correct" way????

[@danwheeler5130]

I also cut my plumb cut on the birdsmouth on a 45 not square

[@nicparker3809]

Why not buy a shed? I think it is cheaper..

[@Alsky11]

Cheaper is right, but if you build your own shed you can make it stronger and can actually last almost a life time

[@TempoDrift1480]
