Cutting rafters, really interesting video but a bit I dont understand.
watch this video from 13.00

He uses a calculator to work out the length of part of the rafter but what is the formula behind the answer?
Also, from 15.00, when he draws the plum line, wont the angel change if the rafter is not, as i'll say, wide ? How will it stay accurate?
Is the answer in his left hand at 21.349? was I looking in the wrong place for his 7 inch measurement?
If I could remember all of what he said I could build a roof. An excellent video
