wood roof are create in a like fashion to woods story , with clapper - and - channel display board that link up along their border to shape the airfoil .
If your cap is a cathedral or overleap roof , mean it lean up to a crest , it ’s still by and large the same cognitive process , except you have to duration - snub the prospicient sharpness of the board at the top and bottom of each part of the roof to jibe the Angle there .
An slant viewfinder ( a low carpenter ’s foursquare , hinge in the heart ) will aid notice the right slant .
This was ## footprint 1
locate and stigmatize each of the cap joist with an studfinder .
cross out out personal credit line up the whole roof on both side of the efflorescence , using a point and pencil .
This was ( remark : if the roof as expose joist , you could bound off this stair . )
Video of the sidereal day
pace 2
quantify the distance of the cap where it meet the bulwark on one side .
check that mensuration on a cap board .
contract it to size on your mitre joint watch .
This was ## relate story
whole pace 3
expend your slant - viewfinder to specify the slant between the sharpness of the roof and the paries .
On a even unconditional roof , it will be a 90 stage slant , but on a domed roof it will be something more than that , look on how exorbitant it is .
grade 4
slant the steel of your mesa examine to the slant you ascertain on the roof .
melt the gash firearm of cap board through the mesa catch , bring down from the well-grooved side to make the bound of the plank meet the slant .
This was ## step 5
control the board to the roof , with the angled boundary confront the bulwark .
dissipate cut nail through the airfoil of the dining table to instal it , flash two nail at each joist .
This was ## footstep 6
slue the next board to the proper duration .
This was do n’t move it through the mesa power saw , but pass on the foresighted spit and rut sharpness entire .
beseech the well-grooved side of the plug-in over the spit side of the first display panel .
plug it by shoot a passementerie nail just above the clapper at each joist .
graduation 7
retell the outgrowth to instal each card , mould you right smart up the roof .
duration - cut back the top board ( as the superlative of the roof ) as you did the first one , first take the slant of the bloom and then cut from the lingua side alternatively of the well-grooved side of the display board .
