Thank you for your video. You showed a "great tutorial" and I have learned some basic from it. I am retired and I would not do any roofing works. But, I tried to learn rafter skills to build a greenhouse.
This is such a good video filled with clearly presented, useful information that I regret there's only one like to give. Thanks for sharing, looking forward for more :)

One of the best clear explanations I have seen ,thankyou
Very informative, and not rambling video. thank you, I don't think I could recreate this without the calculator though obviously.

Although I/we here in the UK set out and mark our hip and jack rafters differently, I still think you do a really great job of clearly explaining how you guys do it in the US 🇺🇸. I also think the way you describe and demonstrate how the different angles apply to the different parts of the roof are very clear and apply to roof construction however you do it. 👍 Great work.

this is informational knowledge gold. I appreciate you so much man, It is so obvious those people that truly know the material vs people who watched a couple youtube videos and decided they were now expert enough to teach other people but the ease and way you put together a demo of a skill is very apparent when its just something you deeply know. It is hard to find quality people like you who will take the time to teach numbers and number skills as it is difficult (again, unless you really know the material) so anyways, long story long, just want to offer a truly genuine appreciation of your efforts it came up at just the right time when I had this task at hand and man, there is a lot of people on youtube over complicating things, giving weird unrealistic info that no one would actually do in real life if they had any idea why they were doing what they were doing. Posted this two years ago but its still very valuable thank you a million.

I’ve seen a few of these videos and enjoy watching them. I dream of the day I can pitch a roof this accurately, but onsite, there are so many other variables to consider. However, you clearly know your stuff! Please make a video onsite showing how to pitch a hipped roof, with unequal pitches, unequal hip angles and pitched over wall plates that the bricklayers laid 🤦♂️

Love your videos. Clear, concise and to the point. I have one question. When cutting the hip rafters you change the pitch from 6 - 12 to 6 -17. Does that apply to any pitch? For example would I use the same run (17) for a 5 -12 or a 4 -12? So 5 -17 or 4 -17 in this example.
