What is a creeper? I spent a few hours looking for this video and ofcourse I found it after l didn't need it. Much thanks for this very informative video
Confused. I like the principle of the direct method. I used the above method for a test project I was recently working on but discovered that the roof pitch was incorrect. It was in fact the complimentary angle. Using the method above, you appear to start off by stating that the first line you mark on the timber is the roof pitch angle, in this case 30º. But that would surely make the Plumb bevel (#1) a 30º angle, which doesn't seem right. I understood that the Level bevel is the same as the roof pitch and the plumb bevel is the complimentary angle. Am I confused?
Hi, Will, I guess when I say the "roof pitch angle" I am referring to the Plumb cut which when cut on a mItre Saw it is set at the angle required for the Plumb Cut of the roof. However, you are correct 30 degrees would actually be the Level Bevel and the Plumb Cut is actually 60 degrees. Hope this helps.
Hi Eddy, we still use the term 4 x 2 as well which referred to 4 inches by 2 inches, in metric that would be 100 x 50mm however with thicknessed timber these days our timber size is 90 x 45mm.
Hi, personally I prefer the Proportional triangle method but I have tried to show as many of the common methods as I can in different videos. ruclips.net/video/inSM6upJf3s/видео.html
geometric development by draftspersons stolen IP from the trade guilds, with sizing given(trig/pythagra) was the institutional way of dumbing down the power of the ships carpenter on the "ships of the line"in the british navy, whom had the biggest cabin on the boat and better wage then indeed the captain! they were the first professional engineers, in the military- carpenters,blacksmiths and masons- offensive and defensive capability providers!
@@Buildsum thanks heaps, I will check this out. Love your channel I’ve been watching it for years. Just started a carpentry course and your videos are priceless. If you create an online video course I will be the first to buy it. 👍 great work thanks
@@Buildsum yeeah nah yeah!, now you have online calculators free of charge to use on line, as long as you understand how to use them, proportional algorithms of all geo metric forms that exist, simply fill in the data inputs and it gives you angles and sizing per dimension.
Your 10 years videos are helping us today thanks for your time making and sharing it.
Thanks Mate, thankfully these techniques dont change so should be relevant for a while.

Anytime watching One of your videos you left me with nothing but just to say Big THANK YOU !
Hi Mate, thanks for you comment, i'm glad you like the videos.
Hi i would like to see where all these angle are on the roof would you have anything that shows where these angles are on a roof thats put up please
Hi Does this help?

Thanks for your knowledge..good Aussie boy..where you at
Regards John
Thanks John
I'm in Sydney
I am ex Wollongong now living in Tassie..was fitter/machinist at the
steelworks,have looked at your vids,you know your stuff..good man
Cheers John
Nice video thanks!
Hi Darius,i'm glad you liked it.
The American sites talk about 2x4 lumber, what does this equate to in Australian lumber dimensions?
Hi Eddy, we still use the term 4 x 2 as well which referred to 4 inches by 2 inches, in metric that would be 100 x 50mm however with thicknessed timber these days our timber size is 90 x 45mm.
@@Buildsum excellent thanks for the confirmation:)
time to get metric Chucky, its a lot more streamlined mathematically and it works into physics formulae simply- hence the name metric! Get digital!
english people talk about 4x2's phonetically referencing jews! china plate= old mate!
clear as mud!

Great video mate
Thanks 👍
Im so confused with the bevels 😅
Hi again mate, this video shows you where the bevels are in the roof.

Absolute sorcery, some skill this
Hi Steve it's just proportional triangles really, personally I like the proportional triangle method better because I find it easier to remember
