I watched a lot of rafter cutting videos but this has been the best one by far. Straight forward and clear.

Handy tip there using two levels and a square to find the existing pitch if replacing rafters or doing an extension. Nice one

[ciaranduffy]

That was so satisfying to watch when you put the template onto the wall plate. Great fit. Good video.

[onetonloon]

When you take something complicated and make simple to a great video.

Well done nice to see young tradesmen pass on what they learned good lad.

Great tutorial and nice simple (plain speaking) explanation.

Subscribed already.

Really enjoyed your simple explanations, will be tuning in for more of your work. Wish I had gotten a trade like this when I was a lad, I can see just how rewarding a job this is.

Well explained I have always struggled to understand this, now I get it 👍🏼

[stephenrobb]

Good video, thanks. So just to clarify… the user would need to know exactly what the pitch angle is before using it? Also what if the wall plate the birds mouth isn’t perfectly parallel with the ridge board all along the full length? Thanks

[konstantine]

Build with A&E sounds like every Friday for me 😂

[eddiewyc]

This is literally sooo good! What a brilliant explanation👌

[mango]

Super video, ,,, ein technische meister, , , , (made in England)

[davidfalat]

Great educational video, ive learnt something there mate.

[lukepcreaney]

Does this pass building regs and hold the structural integrity of the rafter? I know its meant to be 1/3 of the timber on a standard birdmouth why do you do the inverted instead of the traditional? Thanks

[vivekpatel-xxlg]

Thanks and Recommended shed planning in 2021..

[zocratiko]

Thanks for this video, I've just doubt on 2:20. What happens if don't already have any rafter placed on the roof? What must I measure?
