Marking and Cutting out a Rafter - Roofing
Filed Under roofing
glynteach asked:
A procedure for marking out and cutting a rafter by hand - the main timber in a timber framed, pitched roof. This demonstration is on a model sized rafter and meant for beginners or handy people to help get the idea. It is not meant to be a full size rafter with a roofing square or I would have used one. I hope this is helpful to some people.

your eaves (or overhang) is cut afterwards with a stringline and a level,not a chalkline and a bevel.its way more accurate.
you dnt build rafters you cut them out
rise per meter run …dick…..i never heard you say that.
My raftersloli know what did it but there was no info thereof how to build.
Oh you dickhead……………..
just use a framing square and a pencil….this method is ridiculous!
This method pretty much sucks. Grab a framing square or a speed square.
we use a power planer to cut our birdies.
wow what a waste of time, just use a framing square or if youre making models only a speed square it’s 1 tool and will take half as much time. I cant believe how much extra work went into making that 1 single rafter. I build real houses and in those 6 minutes I would have built 2 or 3 full sized rafters.
