Reverse gable rafters are easy to cut

Hello friends, I received a comment asking how to cut the rafter for a reverse gable so I made this video.
I try to make videos that show how easy rafters can be.
Hi, I want to give you a little information about myself, Uncle Gary.
I am a true Jack-of-all-trades in building, remodeling, gardening, and homesteading.
At an early age, before high school graduation, there wasn’t much that I didn’t try, just to see if I could.
I would catch trout out of the streams around my home and cook them over an open fire, on a stick,
In the same streams were areas with a crayfish population, which looked like mini lobsters, and tasted good boiled with some butter.
Some more out-of-the-ordinary things that my buddy Vern and I did were:
Melt aluminum
Make a still (and blow it up)
Make fireworks
Build numerous tree forts and even dug a tunnel fort
Make snare traps
Building go-carts
Raising pumpkins and chickens
Riding cows and horses
At the age of 14, I helped my father build a house in Washington State (wood frame)
At the age of 16, we built 2 barns, one for livestock and a machinery storage barn
At the age of 18, I helped my father build a house in Florida (masonry)
Then at the age of 22, my father and I cut the logs and had them milled so we could build my house in 1984
I haven’t stopped building, remodeling, or trying new things
I hope you enjoy these videos and realize that building and remodeling projects are not as hard as you might think
Good luck with your next project
Uncle Gary

Well done sir, I'm no carpenter, so I needed a simpler explanation, nicely done. Your volume was a little too low for my old ears, needed to use my headphones, and turn up to max. volume. It was worth it though, thanks again, hope to see you around some more. Happy New Year Gary.

How did you learn to do it like that?

[@unclegarybuilds2023]

I try
Thanks

[@carolynelrod9994]

i wondered how you make sure the ridge beam is straight. does it matter if the shingles overhanging at edge of the roof are a little off? i guess it could only be off about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. that'd be ok?

[@chloegracetv7344]

What kind of nails did u use for going into the rafters tho? 4 inch?

[@unclegarybuilds2023]

depends upon the size of the material, there is a building code in the international building code that covers fastener size and placement. icc.org I believe is the website

That effing music.
