[rc]

The fundamentals of the simple framing design are very clearly shown by the short video. "Brevity is the soul of wit". Thanks

So helpfull. I saved drawing this by hand

Including measurements would be a great help since you began with sizing.

Wow, thansk! This is just what I'm looking for. Why do you have to add the boards to the outside of the roof and those boards perpendicular to the rafters?

[shanehogue]

Shouldn't you have your front and back header directly Over the posts. If you nail or screw the header to the post the roof load will only be the sheer strength of the nails or screws which isn't very much. Say 300 sf of surface area with 2 or 3 feet of snow on it. Shit tonne of weight.

I'm using this as a reference for my 16x16 pole shed. Just throwing in an extra post on the sides for support so will have 9 posts total. Hoping for a 5 foot wide sliding barn door style in front so I can finally fit my mower inside easily. Thanks for the work in providing the blueprint for me. Cheers

is this style cheaper than stick building?

What are the names of the steps? I need to use two pieces of wood for the front and back roof rafter cover but how do I use two pieces?
