    EXACTLY! People make it seem so complicated with that pythagorean theorem speech. In the end regardless, it's simple math. This method is similar to how we use here. We pick a spot no mater where it is on the pitch, Measure 12" sub our run and there's your angle. Thanks for this 45 second to the point explanation!

    Okay marking the level was the part that really helped me out because today I was trying to do the same thing but I just didn't have the 12in and everything so I couldn't get my accurate rise I was trying to do it from the inside because I was patching it from a dormer that we removed

    I am so confused. How do you figure out rise from scratch? For example, building a new shed or something. Does it depend on how steep I would like the roof? Or would I just pick a number 4,6,8,12?

  • @SerafinN26

  • @kentmparker

    If you have access to the attic you can use this just in reverse. Good video but you really should have pointed out the bottom of the level is where the 6in measurement came from. Good to see a women giving instruction on a male dominate industry. We need to see more women inspiring young girls to get in the building trades. 👏 👏

      What difference does it make if women are in the building trades ?
      Why do we need to see more women in the building trades ?
      Why is it a problem that the building trades is male dominate ?
      If a woman wants to get into the building trades business, there is absolutely nothing stopping them.

    • @vanfowler
      @vanfowler 4 года назад +3

      Since she used the bottom of the level to create the right angle to the measure tape that would be the point of measure

    • @fetobeatle
      @fetobeatle 3 года назад +1

      In simple words, she used the bottom of the level to get the angle of the roof, not the top.

    • @Inthemeanwhile
      @Inthemeanwhile 3 года назад +1

      She made a mark at 12 inches on top of the level to see where to drop the measuring tape. Then measure to the bottom of the level because the bottom edge/ corner of the level touches the roof.

  • @bikerboy2791
    @bikerboy2791 3 года назад +3

    When you measure down to the roof you need your tape to be square to the level, but it probably doesn't make that much of a difference as long as your tape is close to square to the level.

    • @chandick9101
      @chandick9101 4 года назад +1

      The bottom of the level. Because the bottom of the level is in contact with the roof, thus the level line is along the bottom.

  • @TheOblivionMemeGuy
    @TheOblivionMemeGuy 4 года назад +1

    Came here for clarity but I think I just got more confused lol - Isn't this roof SLOPE since youre measuring rise over a 12" run? Roof PITCH, I believe, is the total the rise over the total span of the roof.

  • @rustymiller1295
