  • on a common rafter you bring the plume cut for the ridge back 3/4" but on the hip your suppose to do 3/4" to 3/4" diagnolly on a framing square and get a measurement of 1" 1/8 and then thats how much you bring the plumb cut back for hip rafter how come you didnt do that?

  • If you listen to the video, you'll hear me state that you remove 1/2 the thickness of the ridge from the common. The reason I didn't say anything about a hip rafter is because this video isn't about hips. . .

  • I’m sad to post this thread, but Joseph Fusco passed away on May 18th 2010. I’m not sure of the details of his passing, but he had two stints back in 2007 and his passing was sudden so I assume it was heart related.

  • its all about rise and run,.half the with of the building,height of ridge.step it off with frame square.
