Awesome video man, the geometry gets a bit confusing but grasped it in the end. Cheers, massive help

To figure out the swoop of the hip could you use the same formula as the common? 6” height/ hypotenuse of the hip to get a radius and then swing that?

Cool. I figure the radius and cut the commons. Place a hip temporarily. Tape a carpenters pencil on the bottom of straight edge and slide the straight edge(keeping it square to commons) up the commons and scribe the hip. The thickness of the pencil is usually close to the drop amount. I don’t frame anymore, but I used to love doing stuff like this.. If you don’t have access to internet, a great formula for finding a radius is C squared divided by 8 h + H divided by 2. C is the cord of the segment and h is the longest measurement between the cord and arc.(height). Good stuff!

The hip lenght is?

So for a sleeper bevel on an overlay you would add the two backing angles and subtract from 90 correct?

Then 1x4's or 1x2's stick sheathing yeah? Thats what we used to stay with the contour of the curves in the roof framing and it worked out for us. Idk if the roofers shingled it or copper tin roofed it we just framed it on one of th houses we framed.

thank you for sharing

Nicely done

on the jog you said 1 1/2 down off your plumb mark. isnt it supposed to be 3/4 inch same as you did on 2*4 wall plate ?

what about the math to do the rafters that attach to the sleepers? I always mess up the bevel side

This was so helpful, thanks for taking the time to make this!

Why the 6 why 3 or 4 It would widen the radius I suppose but why 6 You said it was a good number I’m just curious

This is brilliant. I'll have watch this slowly, and over again and...then find a large piece of cardboard, very large at the recycling center to make my templates. Build the template, then add the flat 'roof' front and sides and trace the radius for the hip. Thank you for sorting this out. It's like, sort of, launching a ship.

Nice tutorial! Thanks. I'm getting ready to build one over my side door and this was helpful. I've only ever helped do one before and we basically just scribed the hip rafter by setting it in place uncut and then sliding a long piece of wood, with a pencil attached to the end of it, down the curve of the front rafters. It worked pretty good and didn't require any complicated measurement transfer like you were doing. And it let you to adjust the length of your hip rafter Before the curve is cut, which gives you a very accurate curve. As for the backing angle... You can just leave it long and then shave down the high edges so that it creates a point on the top of the curve that matches the one where the front and side rafters meet at the top and then it dissipates and flattens out as you move toward the bottom of the curve. That way your roof deck meets on the ridge point and sits solid against wood instead of having a gap behind it. Only takes a couple minutes with a plane. Or a belt sander also works good.

Great video! Now, for an irregular hip roof, do I follow the same steps for each pitch? For example, a 6/12 and 12/12 roof, do I go 6 hip and 12 hip or it changes?

your videos are kickass!

Great idea, thank you for sharing that

I want to point out to a guy who believes “ it’s not rocket science “. Actually you’re right ? We are building ppls homes who are making one of thee largest investments of their life’s ! Do I want a clown who claims it’s not rocket science? Or ? Someone who takes pride in his trade and understands the science behind better building ? I am a finish contractor who sometimes subs to a GC ? I can tell you right now I can ferret out clowns like him in a couple questions! And “ I doubt he is kicking anyone in their face”! Carry on; I learn a lot about framing from you thank you!

Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time 💪🏻

Excellent videos! Hoping you’ll do a bay window curved roof video. I’d imagine it’s a combination of this and your curved video. But…

What other books do you recommend? I worked for a larger company for years but because I was diverse in my skill I was always pulled off the site when framing out the roof/ dormer to do other jobs to bring the company in some quick money while they were tied up on the new build. I have my own construction business now but I stay away from new construction because of my lack of knowledge with framing up roofs and dormers. I'm going to purchase a copy of the roof cutters secrets asap.

I remember those three days Only one of my guys showed up on those three days. Keep up the good work. I follow because your tips are amazing.

If i did this id have a ledger. Is there a reason not to? How did you secure it? Great work btw. Im still stuck on scribing in my hip. Need to rewatch and wrap my head around your technique

Nice work. I hope they appreciate you building suck a steep roof. Hahaha. Why they being so mean. Hahaha

I always make sure you have 3 1/2 " height at the plate, it also matters what's going on the gable behind it brick or rock or siding that determine the ridge width Good video tho

a solution for you hight problem would be to plane both sides at an angle until you hit the center line. hard to explain without a drawing.

One of the best layouts I've seen, glad to see you used backing cuts .How ever if you're not using a closed soffit I double bevel vertical seat cuts on hips to accommodate finished freeze blocks. 40 years ago I learned Your methods using a full length rafter book. Can't count how many PHONY roof to wall hips I've seen. California Framer

Now that looks buttery bro

Thanks for the videos man. The music is up a little too loud to actually hear you speaking.

Great Video. This does save time

not good visual

2:58 instead of pivoting around a nail, you could line up the tongue with the perimeter line and then mark 90° up the blade. Ditto for a second blade line or mirror image coordinate. Of course the corner of the square is facing away from the 135° bay hip angle as you have your square. Guessing but the most you could be from the bay's hip angle is 14" along the tongue or the 2 blade lines won't intersect each other without extending the two lines.

Lmao. You don’t need to do all that to find that angle buddy. Just run it long and get a block and boom that’s your angle. You must be just starting out champ.

Very good video but can you do a video explaining how to calculate the rafter that lays on top of the other roof fist drawing please

🎉 Awesome man. Is that your trailer? Can we see the build out? I’m getting to this here soon. -10 is pretty cold but I would take that before rain. Rain makes me crazy. I am a snow guy for sure.

Red Oak. Stoked to see more content. Always enjoy your stuff. How is the house remodel going? Question on the video: How does one know when to use the true angle? For example, If I know the pitch of each roof, when it’s time to decide the degree, when would I know with my square when I really need to cut 15 degrees or the inverse of that? Is it by looking at it? Or any pitch that meets a steeper pitch will be the true degree and any steeper pitch meeting a lower pitch will be the inverse? I guess I am trying to figure out, when subtracting from 90, what determines the true angle vs the inverse or speed square angle?

Excellent explanation. Thank you!

Just came across your video and to me its "Gold Dust" I will check out this book also, Thank you

Definitely just your plain jane old platform stick framing all day everyday. Not any balloon framing or Chicago framing at all. Not even close.

clear as mud.good job.

I'm always looking for that new red oak content when taking my morning shit...❤

This is insane cool 😎 What would normally be the roof covering for something like this?

Type your total rise in hit rise then convert stair it’ll give you all your information if you keep hitting the stair button

Это что за козлы? Tougbuild? Как они в работе?

Excellent teaching video.

Looking forward to more videos!

You deserve way more than that, your videos are so informative! Can’t wait for more videos!

Congratulations!!!

Do you find it more accurate to add a inch vs place the miter at the end of the saw and measure off that with no need to add the inch? Just curious and always looking for improvements
