3/8" IS NOT A COMMON NUMBER( THE VERY FIRST THING HE DISCUSSES IN THE VIDEO) TO THE HIP DROP BECAUSE A ROOF WITH AN 18/12 AND A ROOF WITH A 4/12 PITCH WILL HAVE DIFFERENT HIP DROP DEDUCTIONS . PLUS MAKE TAIL PATTERNS OF YOUR COMMON RAFTERS AND HIP RAFTERS . IT WILL BE SO MUCH EASIER . LESS THINKING INVOLVED .

I am totally new to carpentry. So, I find the terms you use a little difficult to follow. It would be helpful for ple like myself if you could put a picture inlay of what u are talking about. Or take a few seconds to explain each term
