Framing Square Angles Video

Tim Carter demonstrates how to make professional square angles of different slopes, using a framing square.

A framing square is a powerful hand tool. Why is it so powerful? It allows builders to do lots of things including cutting roof rafters.

In the video, Tim explains the two legs of the framing square (the tongue and the body). Using these legs and knowing the pitch of the roof, you can layout the proper angles for your roofing members.
