Very good video, at 4:12 you show dropping the seat cut another 1/4" (1/2) thickness of hip stock. Why is this done, what does it accomplish?

Ive noticed that when calculating the length per single unit foot run using the Pythagorean theorem vs the length per foot run listed on the carpenter's square, it's off by .02" or 1/32. This isn't such a big deal on one unit length but when you multiply that over 1/2 the length of a 40 ft building, that 1/32 turns into a half inch. So, you could conceivably cut your board a 1/2 too long or too short. How does one account for this? A half -inch short if you use the square multiplied vs Pythagorean Theorem

You are correct in asking this .. The teachers response .. " The students don't always have a square at home " is hogwash .. and you are a scant few that has brought this up in all my trolling of these masters .. Just being off a wee bit translates into a 1/4 " or even 9/16" .. and that is dramatic I can do the math to an absolute and show the error .. The greater the span , the greater error will .. Will cause a problem .. The Square method works on little homes and backyard sheds .. But again ... The greater the span , the greater the error .. and if I not mistaken .. Teachers should teach absolutes .. not errors .. Use Math . Use Pythagoras .. .I would give you an A just for asking that question .. .. My blackboard is a sheet of plywood , during lunchtime with an inquisitive mind ..

Don't lay it off one foot at a time with the rafter square. Multiply the length per foot run times the rafter run with a calculator. Then measure it with a tape measure. Use the square to get the last inches after you measure the feet with your tape.

you didn't mention cutting the seat cut a little deeper so as to allow the hip to come into line with the other rafters to aid in sheeting,have you heard the term backing? I understand backing isn't done anymore,and the hip is just dropped to achieve the same result.

Brad, other videos are indicating that the second plumb line (HAP CUT) is measured from the center line of the cheek cuts. You measured 2-1/8th further back which was from the end of the rafter. Seems your rafter is going to be short? Which is correct?

Yes. Valley rafters and hip rafter on an equal pitch roof are the same thing. We do not drop the hip. and typically make just one cheek cut on the tail to carry the fascia board...an inverted double cut would be...silly.

refrigeration tech, no. when on one side of the hip you have a steeper slope than the other side. quite a few home have a hip roof with the ends at a greater slope than the front and back. if this is the case we say the roof is unequal. on an unequal roof the hips do not travel at a 45...they don't cross over the corners of the wall....the end wall needs to be built up or a post put under the hip.
