      Ну, на канале Антона Вебера ещё и описывается, как по-быстрому переносить углы запила с уклона ската на луч вальмы и наоборот, расписано, как соотносятся шкалы уклона и луча (то есть соотношение шкал графического калькулятора, которым свенсон и является), итд. Но таки да, здесь всё крайне наглядно, лаконично и без воды!

    Just discovered your awesome videos... uncovered the tape measure first and option for the speed square...
    LOL... I was hoping that there happened to be a slide rule video in your collection because I suspect that you would rock it like a rocket scientist!
    Your method of creating a visual image with written support is excellent.
