1. Measure the span of the building and determine your rafter length.


2. Cut rafter out to use as a pattern-now mark other rafters for plumb cut and birds mouth cut - cut all out.


3. Install ridge board use board next size larger than the rafters - layout ridge board on both sides where rafters will go. Brace ridge board up at each end.
