![How To Make Common Rafters [Measure, Mark & Cut]](/img/n.gif)
Been involved in construction for several decades. Also taught the subject. Read many books and believed in simplicity. I must say that this is one of the best videos I have ever seen. Basic, simplistic and easy to understand. Kudos to you sir. You should be teaching in an Apprentice school. Absolutely great job. Beautifully illustrated. Thank you. A joy to watch.
I never get tired of comments like yours and sincerely appreciate reading them.
I am new to construction, and I am builing a 12 x 16 shed. Why is there not a video with simple plans for a 12 x 16 simple 2 x 6 rafters joined with a gusset so iIdon't have to fiques out the math?
@@christinerameau885 you can order a complete 12 x 16 shed as a kit. No math. Just read the plans and nail it together. But if do not want order a kit. Then Math is necessary to measure and build it.
@@christinerameau885 There is. Bushradical have amazing videos on small tiny cabins. I got the enough motivation from him and his wife.
This is an excellent introduction to the construction of a roof, clear, concise and easy to understand. It explains the angles & geometry of the build and the reason it works the way it does. A superb example of how to teach. Well done that man.
Finally a roof raft video I understood for this C- math student! Thank you!
Same here 😂
I'm building a 600 square foot shop- and know nothing about roof rafters or how to design them, i have wached about 15 you tubes on the subject all say the same thing, follow these very simple math equations and you will know how to cut a roof rafter, well i say to them bull hunky. i was starting to pull out what small amount of hair from my head that i have left when i said i will try this vid but it's the last one before i call in a professional. Thank you thank you thank you. i finally get it and i feel very confident now that i can do this. the world needs more teachers like you,
I appreciate the detailed way you describe the "math" and the layout concepts. Don't change the way you are presenting your content. You method "cemented" the concept into my mind so well that I doubt I will ever forget it or need a review. My next stop is your link for more helpful videos. I am a fan.
This is probably the best video I’ve watched describing how to create a pitched roof for those not familiar with construction methods. Simple, well explained and easy to follow. Well done and thank you 😊 👍
After spending hours on learning how to make these type of rafters, and putting together all the math that’s involved, I have to say this looks to be the easiest way for a DYI like me.
Thank you.
Super! I always love to figure things like these on the slab somewhere first with live sizes. Then just step back with the framing from the edge of a thickness of plywood wall sheeting and then you don't need to fuss with the roof, since it's ready to go to be installed fast being precut.
Finally, a way to understand how to do this! I'm mathmatically challenged so this was soooo helpful. Thank you.
I am not an experienced Carpenter however I do have some basic carpentry skills. I am in the planning process of building my own off grid house and was extremely confused and a little bit scared about building the rafters because of the complicated way everyone explains them. I feel like after watching your video I now have the confidence and understanding I need to successfully complete the task of putting up rafters. Thank you very much for the wonderful way you have taught this process through this video. Please keep up the good work and I will be subscribing
The BEST, SIMPLEST, EXCELLENTLY PRESENTED guide to shed rafter layout on the Tube. Watched this a couple of times now and provided you make sure you are working from a square base, is fool proof. 👍🏾👍🏾
Square foundation make everything easier and glad you learned something new.
Soon I am starting the shed project. I wanted to do gable roof. Have been watching a lot of videos and this one made everything crystal clear and made it easy❤
Brilliant video, Greg! Thanks for taking the time and providing your expertise to us.
As always, thanks for the kind words.
I have no experience in building anything. I decided to build a greenhouse to protect my plants from the freezing weather this winter. I was having trouble figuring out how I would make my roof. Your video has helped me figure out what to do to get a stable roof and how to cut my angle at the top. Thank you for making it so easy. Don't change your videos. I'm attaching to my house and using 2 x2 x8 boards and plastic to cover the roof and sides. Nothing is level or at right angles. Fun projects! Thank you.
I'm just about to build my own house and was looking for an easier way to measure the rafters. This is just spot on, cheers!
Great and thanks for letting us know!!!!
I have been wanting to build my own work shed for about a year now. After watching this I can say I feel very confident about going through with it. Thank you for your video.
That sounds awesome and good luck on your project.
This is he easiest i've seen for cutting roof rafters good job.
I was kinda confused as a novice carpenter but helped me out and explained it well so now I’m good and understand.. thanks
Thanks. You have simplified roof rafters and I need simple!
GREAT !!!
I love how simple it can be made, ...
leaving all those whom invest tons of money into tools out to dry...
meaning... it's not as important to have all the fancy tools as one might think... just need saws, pythogaerom theorem, calculator pencil, paper or something to write on like wood to make note and marks and measuring tape, maybe chalk line... (clear water hose ends with fluid in them for leveling) ... that is all you need, and most important IDEA of what you want to do and how to do it studying these youtube videos really helps, one really has giant advantage that all the previous generations of builders never had... youtube is a coach is like having GPS maps in your car is helpful to all whom previously used paper maps and counting freeway exits to your destination for turn off connecting roads on the way to somewhere else... love youtube and everyone taking the time to teach, many many thanks!

been watching rafter videos for days now trying to understand it because I'm planning to do a roof by myself. This is the only video so far that didn't lost me in all the difficult mathematical steps.
Awesome, thank you Sir. Never in my 57 yrs have I heard anyone explain this in such a simple way. You have made it so easy. Thank you again.
Wow, thanks!
Wow!! I have been studying books and watching videos on how to make roof rafters and this by far was the best method. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Brilliant ...laying it out on the slab .I have never seen that before , great video
Great job. This makes it so much easier. Thank you
This makes all the sense in the world to me. Thanks so much!
This has been the most simplest way to do trusses I’ve seen for preparation of building my 10x12 shed….ty
You did a perfect job explaining everything. Great cad work. 🧡👍👍
I didn't know how this was done. First time seeing this. I love it!
I'm glad I watched this vid to learn the easy way first.
Thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the video, keep learning.
Great video. The explanation goes right down to the layman.
I can tell you right now I love the video and the longer I would choose to watch due to the fact it's more information that you're going to be able to teach me I'm 50 years old but in this industry since I was 17 years old I know mostly everything that there is to know except brilliant ways like this following the rules of carpentry makes this one of the most efficient ways I've ever seen in my life thank you very much for taking the time and educating me I can't wait to see what you have next
What an awesome compliment and I myself started full time when I was 17.
Very impressive! Very legible; I don’t think it can be better than that; I’ve been watching many videos, and honestly, all of them, all the contractors have been very professional; but yours is the clearest that I can see, thank you so very much, believe me, you just gave me a big and great solution about what I was looking for; thanks again!.
You bet and comments like yours are awesome.
Thanks for taking the time to share your simple rafter knowledge.
You're welcome and keep learning.
Excellent video! Nothing is too lengthy, very clear, practical, and useful. Math works the same way, but practically only easy if using the metric and decimal system, and no mistakes are made when marking the lumber. This makes it faster, isolates you from the material's dimensional inconsistencies, and inspires confidence.
Superb, thank you!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you, making a simple garden project . To the point!
You are welcome!
Very informative, am learning something so useful, Thanks Greg!!
Glad to hear it and thanks for letting me know!
Thanks for your kind teaching
Awesome ! So simple 😎
I love it when people make it clear and simple - you did!
Glad to help and thank for letting us know you love it.
That makes my job easier thank you so much I love ur explanation
Liked very mutch. Finally someone was an convicent explaining.
Thanks for that , now I get it . Been pounding my head with all these other videos doing all this math . Your way is so simple and easy . thanks again . Greg
Great to hear!
I love your teaching method! Two thumbs up. Don't change your teaching style. Everyone learns differently. If your style does not work for a viewer, than it should be the viewer's responsibility to search for one that best suites their learning needs. You keep up the good work. I subscribed and liked!
Thank you so much for the kind words and support 😊
You made a complicated project very easy to understand. Thank you so much for the video. I understand this will work for any size rafter on any size building. It all correlates with the size of building. Got a thumbs up from me!
You are welcome!
Wish Id seen this before I built my project very good job explaining thx.
Very helpful information 👌 thank you for the video. I'm currently building a 12x8 shed and I'm stuck on the rafters.
Perfect! That was the simplest explanation I've ever seen! Thanks!
Glad it helped and you're welcome.
Brilliant, thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it!
Excellent video

Very good video simple and easy to understand 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you my friend , a superb explanation of how to roof my new greenhouse. I had a good idea but I'm sure this has saved me a lot of frustration and head scratching.
Great to hear!
Man! there's always someone that doesnt overthink things and you are the man!!!! Thanks!
Awesome.

I never thought about laying out on the slab. Thanks for the pro tip.
Glad to help
Makes so much sense, thank you, great tip.
Glad it made sense and you're welcome.
Today I started working on the attic floor. Tomorrow hopefully the the ridge beam. I am excited!
Did I like this video? Oh hell ya! The simplicity of this method is astonishing.
EXCELLENT WAY TO EXPLAIN HOW TO CUT THE RAFTERS.
Brilliant. The ability to convey an understanding in the simplest way possible is a mark of brilliance. Beautifully done.

Great job thank you very much,I’m a very experienced carpenter and I always learn something with you!
Great to hear!
I think your videos are very informative. Thanks amigo.
Muchas gracias por su información entendí muy bien su explicación fácil y sencilla no tan complicada como lo explican otras personas con tantos cálculos difíciles esto era lo que necesitaba muchas gracias un saludo del sur de Chile
Videos like this one makes it alot easier...BRILLIANT... THANK YOU.
Great to hear!
Great explanation of the rafter process.
I was looking for something like this. I'm building my own tiny cabin (12x20) in a piece of land that I own. I was going with the shed style roof for how easy it looked to build and also because everytime I saw a video of how to make a gable roof it seamed so complicated. Thank you. Before raising the wall I will try to make this, if it fits then I will have my gable roof and more space in my loft bed. Thx!
You're welcome and I hope it works out.
I really like your approach to demonstrating how this can easily be done. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome.
Great video. Excellent technique in training what is some fairly complicated calculations of angles.
Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for letting us know you did.
I did my lay out on the garage floor with soap stone to check my math. I like the idea of checking it right on the slab, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
makes sense!! But will need to watch it a few more times. Thank you!
Make sure your slab is on point.
Made very good sense, thank you,very thorough. That was a very easy way to explain it.
Much easierto figure out on the floor than it is up in the air.
Excellent!
Dude, what? Super smart. Great idea.
As a new carpenter for 5 years I can say you're a life saver making things less complicated and simple thansk
You're welcome and keep learning.
Finally. I found what I needed to be able to build my shed rafters. Thank you very much. New sub.
Thanks for the sub!
Very GOOD! Thanks and it DID make amazing sense.
Great to hear!
This is the most helpful video on this subject I have found. Thank you!
Awesome.
Very clear, thank you sir
Excellent video, bravo. If only I saw this a few months ago it would’ve made my job a lot easier. Thanks
That's a comment I hear often, but at least you will know for the next time, if there is going to be a next time.
Awesome explanation, just what I was looking for.
Great to hear and thanks for watching!
I wish I had seen this about three weeks ago. It would have saved me hours.... no, it would have saved me days. Thanks for taking time to show us.
You're welcome and thanks for letting us know that it could have helped. Bummer!!!
Thanks for an eye opening video👍
Amazing. Simple, thorough, and very much appreciated
Glad it was helpful!
Finally I understand it now 👍🏼👌🏼
Setting out rafters before you frame the walls.... Great piece of info I hadn't seen in other roofing videos.!
Cool, thanks!
Very good explanation. Thanks Tom
You are Very welcome
Thank you for the tutorial. Very simple and easy to understand. Unfortunately I checked your video after I installed the walls of 😊my shed but I was able to laid my rafters in my garage.
Thank you very helpful.
After doing the "math" I took your advice and laid it out on the driveway. Worked PERFECT. Thanks
Excellent!
one time i went to wooden boat building school where the craftsmen used a layout method called "lofting" to lay out all the curves to build a boat - all laid out on the floor. this reminds me of that. thanks for sharing.
Interesting!
Excellent. Easy to understand. Thank you!!
You are very welcome!
Easy to understand. Thanks for this 🙂
I love it, the method is simple and straight forward . Thanks
Comments like yours are always appreciated:)
Well done!!!!
Very few people could explain in a simple way thank you nice

Great to hear!
Amazing explainer. Thank you for what you do!
You're very welcome!
Simple way just right for me. No complicated math needed. Good job sir!!!
Great to hear!
Good presentation. Have to make sure side walls are nice and plum and right width so bird mouth fits snugly on top plate. Good job.
All the way from Belize central America, thumbs up to your video, it is so easy to understand, on how to cut roof rafters.
All right and glad you learned something new.
So simple. Thank you!
You're welcome!
