How to Lay Out a Birdsmouth- Roof Framing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 фев 2023
- Let's start cutting some rafters. This roof is a nice shallow slope at 5-12. That means that for every 12" of travel or run (horizontally) we rise 5" vertically. I'll show you how to lay out the birdsmouth and and tail as well as adjusting the birdsmouth to sit in hangers are the glulam across the entry.

Please remember that I'm not showing the best way to do anything, but just the method that works well for us. Thanks for watching!

Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like RUclips if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course sso.teachable.com/secure/2458... I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.

#building #construction #framing
There is truly so much more to doing construction work than just knowing how to construct (form,frame,finish,etc). The management and manipulation of tools, materials and manpower all make the construction industry so challenging. Tim, you do an awesome job of highlighting these aspects in all of your videos. Also, in order to keep the work profitable, your emphasis on EFFICIENCY OF MOVEMENTS AND MATERIAL MANIPULATION is second to none! No doubt it’s because you really are an Awesome Framer😉😉! Did you see what I did there😂? Thank you for taking the time to video all of these things for us. I also love the fun loving attitude you put on display that makes the hard work seem not so hard! Much respect and appreciation for all you do and sharing it. Keep up the Awesome work!
You have to be a professional level athlete, and have brains, math skills, and know how to not kill/hurt yourself.
Love how you work calm and efficiently and think everything out, wish I knew more people that work like that. Lots of respect, great video. Keep it up man!
On one hand the extra detail and real time progress is great…but on the other hand I’d love to see more progress! This is like 20 minutes of work fit into a 20 minute video. Thanks for all the great vids either way
Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans!
Thank you for all the info.
Man you know how to steepen a learning curve. Keep dancing.
Watching this video was a pure pleasure.
Bruh! I distinctly remember being taught to cary a ladder too. It was the first time I realized that, just because it’s a physical job like lifting a ladder, caring drywall, or digging hole, doesn’t mean you can disengage your brain box.
What a stud. Ok, and in the end isn't it much more efficient to train your guys to be safe? I just shoved a chisel through (a door latch mortise and) my finger. Surprising and just a simple lapse that could have been much worse. Thanks Tim it's always a pleasure.
Thanks again Tim and your good helpers.Good teaching,you guys are awesome.thanks
I’ll more than likely watch this 20 times
You guys are hilarious! Awesome channel. Great perspective. Big fan. Thank you for sharing. Much love.
Timmy you're my hero. I wish I could work with you and learn from a master of the trade
Awesome video! I haven’t hand framed a roof before, but between watching you and Perkins Builders, I’m really itching to try and hand frame one instead of just using truss’s. I want to hand frame one so bad I even dreamt about laying out and cutting birds mouth’s. 😂 Thanks for the content!
Whew! Thanks for clarifying that Tim! Anyway I have that same shoulder pain issue , back surgery, left hand reconstruction surgery , blah blah, and I hv to take meds for my pain because I refuse anymore surgical intervention! Yes I still am a finish man but I do not lift those unwieldy boards like a 20’ 2x12!
Sheet goods yes but if you can not load and unload cabinets and plywood ?
Anyway physical therapy helped me however I had one of the fine therapist teach me and write down those exercises ! Then I could do them myself ! Plus you gotta take an anti inflammatory? I know I know thats my meds it is just a must! Go ahead I did ; fight it! Then after 5 yrs I gave in? Ahhhhhh !
Oh and a Walgreens heating pad! Summer ice it then a little heat! Your winters u need heat treatment!
Ok buddy thank you for the video God bless you and yours!
Great video!! Very informative
You’re amazing ❤
I just love the smell of ripping Doug- Fir!
like. You guys always use the innovative gear, like RR buildings.
Tim the tool man Aka Awesome Framer
Baahahaha! …… “below my waist I’m crazy strong”
Thank you for the video
Growing up doing fine carpentry, I was so paranoid about using a circular saw and cutting past the lines for framing. Especially anything load bearing. Oh to be young again.
Sheesh, i dislike you. Just kidding.. lol... so much ease and knowledge being shared here.
I haven't looked it up yet but do a full video on those osb saw horses if u can
Plate levels are not cheap to leave open just bought a second one it cost me 500$ with the case Great video
no dust to eat that makes everything nice
What kind of bags are those? I like how the hammer is stowed.

Louisville tripod is much better than the Werner tripod. and by the way #teamnoah
Is it important that the rafters always go above the ridge beam?
Could they be flush with the top!
How long does 1 makita battery last on that worm drive saw when cutting rafters?
Hey Tim unrelated but do you ever worry about moisture and subfloor puckering/ a crawl space getting moldy due to water seeping through subfloor gaps?
Nope because we have a vented crawl. If everything is bad timing, we have had the crawl sprayed after it dries out to prevent any future issues.
How do you like the xgt? I'm curious about battery life vs the 36v with 2 5aH batts.
love it. I've got a video all about these saws here on YT
Depends on what you are cutting. I have 2 of them with 5ah batteries save they can either last all day (or close) or die pretty quick. They don't seem to like to rip 2x material. But cutting rafter material or studs, subfloor, etc, they do really well, imo.
@Mike Penrod oh for sure.. We've been using the cordless saws on my crew for 3 years+ I'll bring 6 batteries to work typically. Unless I'm building stairs (cutting stringers and ripping SYP treads) I get away with a battery change around lunch, sometimes they'll die at end of day. We don't have any issues ripping, really, but we do keep fresh diablo blades on.
XGT seems to have the same or better power, and is lighter. But I'm wondering about the battery life seeing as how it's less Amp hours
Edit: did you mean the xgt has trouble ripping 2x? Does it have less power than the 36V, 2 batt saw?
Lol ya we were wondering..
Always make time for a little dance on site. It's the law
Your rafters have a notch greater then 1/4th the thickness of the rafter, isnt this against code?
It’s tough being the wise one, 😂
What happened to your right hand man? You said he’s been working with you for a long time. I think his name was kyle too.
It is Kyle and I thought the same but this new Kyle keeps confusing me.
Hello, I use the speed sq. to layout my rafters. I having a very difficult time with the birds mouth! These are my measurements: 143.25 span...71-5/8 run...3/12 pitch...17.91 rise...73-13/16 diag. I make my 1st plum cut 3/12...measure down the board to 73-13/16 make 2nd plum cut...add10.5" for overhang. I come back to the 2nd plum cut...measure up 1-1/2 inch for the seat cut, then 3-1/2 inch cut. I finish off with cutting 3/4 inch for the ridge board...it doesn't fit!!! What am I doing wrong!!!
What exactly isn't fitting?
@@AwesomeFramers The birds mouth
@@johnforeman9926 yes, but what's wrong with the birdsmouth?
@@AwesomeFramers It will not lay flat on the top plate...too much space between bottom of the plate and the bottom of the cut...if I raise the rafter, it looks like a 5/12 pitch?
@@johnforeman9926 did you add to the height of the ridge the height of your rafter at the plate?
👍📐🔨
So, there is one question i could not get of. Is this guy married? 😅 If i would ever meet this guy in person, i could completely fall in love.
yep, married happily for 23 years this summer
That looks longer than 2m and 53mm.
I'm sure you meant to say the Kardashians 100 percent real fake🤣
Ladders are inherently dangerous! Hernia fell off framing a garage for drywall (adding trusses to 24” OC) a whamo bamo ! 20’ 2x10 missed the pocket my bad!
Scaffolding collapses 2019 shattered foot in 6 places fell bout 16/17’ full bags I jumped as my customer undid a safety latch thinking he was helping?
Heights are inherently dangerous! Yeah I know everyone tells me?
I love your videos, but please adjust your camera audio or make it monotone. Hearing you only in my right ear for this video drove me crazy and I had to stop watching.
This one seemed to bore me....
So funny to see how everyone is taught differently. I’ve never seen a rafter tail cut like that after the wall to the subface.
