    What a PHENOMENAL video...you are a gifted teacher, and this was the best explanation I've seen on framing a hip roof. I'm a framing junkie, but have never known how to frame this type of roof. I downloaded the Construction Master™ Pro app for my iPhone, and was able to follow along easily. Thank you!

    Although I/we here in the UK set out and mark our hip and jack rafters differently, I still think you do a really great job of clearly explaining how you guys do it in the US 🇺🇸. I also think the way you describe and demonstrate how the different angles apply to the different parts of the roof are very clear and apply to roof construction however you do it. 👍 Great work.

    this is informational knowledge gold. I appreciate you so much man, It is so obvious those people that truly know the material vs people who watched a couple youtube videos and decided they were now expert enough to teach other people but the ease and way you put together a demo of a skill is very apparent when its just something you deeply know. It is hard to find quality people like you who will take the time to teach numbers and number skills as it is difficult (again, unless you really know the material) so anyways, long story long, just want to offer a truly genuine appreciation of your efforts it came up at just the right time when I had this task at hand and man, there is a lot of people on youtube over complicating things, giving weird unrealistic info that no one would actually do in real life if they had any idea why they were doing what they were doing. Posted this two years ago but its still very valuable thank you a million.

I have not watched any other videos, another trick, if you don't know this ,, for a cut that is over 45 degrees on the saw, lets say 60 degrees.. you can first cut a 45 and than a 15 to get 60.

    Love your videos. Clear, concise and to the point. I have one question. When cutting the hip rafters you change the pitch from 6 - 12 to 6 -17. Does that apply to any pitch? For example would I use the same run (17) for a 5 -12 or a 4 -12? So 5 -17 or 4 -17 in this example.

Question: I am tackling my tiki bar hip roof next. Want to do a 12" overhang on the back and right side and a 24" overhang on the front and left side. How should I tackle where the 12" and 24" overhangs come together? I was thinking of having the hip rafter stop short where a fascia board would line up (in the horizontal) with the closest jack rafters on each side of the hip. Your thoughts?

    • @TrainingHandsAcademy
      @TrainingHandsAcademy  Год назад

      Shortening is half the 45 degree thickness of the ridge board if you are doing a single side cut attaching to the ridge. However, if you are doing a double sided cut (like in the video), it's half the 45 degree thickness of the common rafter. Great question!!

    Fantastic video!! So on a regular hip, my bevel on the jack rafters is always a 45? Like on a 10 pitch roof, which is 40° would my jack rafters be a 45° bevel or 40°?
