After hours of research, this bloke explains it in seven seconds.

In carpentry it’s nice to have good angle tools and also to know a fair bit about angles👍

You are correct. Love the Swanson speed square. Such a great tool.

Do another video explaining the hip rafter angle to make it known 🤷🏼

Also cutting out that slimy green knot at the same time in one cut.

After dozens upon dozens of videos, he explains it using plain English.

How come you are not using the 30 degree angle as you specified at the start of the video on your speed square but 22.5 instead? Is this because the speed square is imperial and not metric?

Good to know...from now on, every roof I build will be a 40° pitch.

Kinda new to carpentry, but let's say Im doing a 9/12 pitch. Cant I go to a miter saw and subtract 9 from 45 and get 36 degrees?

[shuaib]

if you measure 30⁰ why don't you just cut at 30⁰???

[BFishy]

I’m not sure how to phrase this question, but what about the angle of the compound mitre off of the pitch angle? If that makes sense

[doncook]

Um can’t understand the chap. Translate to English

[cornhammer]

There is a better way but I will keep that to myself 😉

Never understood why not just mark it all in degrees instead of transferring numbers ???
