Always a pleasure watching Dan, a true craftsman.
Between Dan Robbin and James we ain’t short of roofing videos lad sir Robert has it all sown up keep it all up lads from one Chippe to yous 👍👍🔨
I love watching Dan work. He's a true craftsman of his trade.
Love the videos with Dan. Very very good at his trade and explains things so it's actually understandable 👏👏👏
this guy has a great tone for the channel and the knowledge to go with it
Square was bought a few months ago and never really looked back, fantastic engineering and workmanship.
Thanks Kevin. Glad it’s serving you well.
Watching Dan sawing that thermalite brought back some old memories. I was on a job years ago. I came back from lunch break to find the bricky using my newly sharpened saw to cut some slips to go over a lintel. I was fecking fuming! Not only had he not asked to use my kit (pees me right off that - I would've given him an old saw if he'd asked) but two days previous I'd sharpened all my saws because I was off to Canada the next week on a 4 month project. Tw*t! Well, at least I can laugh about it now eh? (sort of 😠)
A brick to the back of the head usually changes that sort of behaviour.
@@whatyousaidbud Only problem with that is Canada won’t let you in with GBH on your record 😂
My bricky did exactly the same. Thick as pig mince. A brand new jacksaw.
There was a time when you would loose a hand for touching someone else's tools.
Such a pleasure to watch Dan - skill at the ultimate level.
Thanks Steve.
First class joiner 👍👍
Dan is the best 👍👍👍
😲. Thanks George.
Absolutely the most accurate way to do it, thank you
If you get the run and height or rafter length and height you can calculate the cuts perfectly accurately
Good work Daniel👍
Good thinking, setting up the rafter to mark the plumb cut top and birdsmouth is exactly the same principle used
when scribing anything to fit onto an uneven surface or a surface which is out of level. I used it for many years
but had never thought about using it in that way before.
Watched yesterday, used this method today really simple great video thanks a lot
Great tip! Shows ya never to old to learn a new one! ✌️
Dan the Man
And this is why you watch and learn from real UA-camrs children....
Amazing skill and craft. Thank you for sharing.
A true Craft's Man always makes it look so easy
Dan simple trade skills shared .... I invested in your square,, keep the trade skills coming
Thanks.
Dan is the man! 💪🏼
Makes it look so easy
English chippies, some of the best in the world...luv it!
Personally I think this is one of the most useful videos I have seen on Skillbuilder, because not to many sites are going to have dead level and parallel wallplates if there fixed by other's. But by using your method you overcome all these issues, did you do the hip using the same method? Happy Xmas and look forward to seeing you soon. 👍👍👍
Thanks Kevin for your support. This plate wasn’t bad but it did run out about 20 mm from one end to the other so a slight adjustment was made on the rafters. The hip went in the usual way, hit the pitch from a chart, quick measurement and the height above plate and it was in.
All the best to you for Christmas. 🙏
Thank you
That was genius. Great ideas for construction. Out of curiosity are the studs the same in the U.K. as in the U.S. ? Visually the metric stud looks a bit thicker.
I do the same for my hips, nice tip there Dan....Keep rocking and happy Christmas mate
Thanks Gavin, and for your continued support. 🙏
All the best to you.
I see the ridge to underside of sill being only a brick high often, nice to see a block+ high. What great skills 👍
Feeling like a boss there at the end with his level on. Top man
Very enjoyable lesson there Dan. And bang on workmanship!
Thanks Martin.
Fantastic video, much appreciated
The sort of tradesman you wish for but rarely get.
Nice one Dan
Dan is the man 😂
He truly is
I spent hours watching all others videos, as i want build lean to on garden using 6x2 wall plate and 4x2 rafters@ excellent video with simple hack dont need use calculation angles@ easy to follow keep.up the good work @ very confident now can get my angles and burds mouth cut on rafters to fit perfectly and do a nice job as a DIY person.
Dan your the man
Thanks.
Sorry but I am an Imperial roofing carpenter and use the square for all my roofs, I was taught to use a 'pitch board' working in 12ths, so if you have the run and rise the pitch of the roof is given, old school i know but it works for me every time, thanks for posting your videos, Thanks.
Me too, l don't know how to use speed squares etc. I use trig
Nice job I’m a bricky so it’s always nice to see it from a joiners perspective 👍🏻
Hi Dan I do like the way you don't faff around. New Gun, hope it's not as heavy as the Hikoki. Are you hoping to gain height keep working in the rain your setting a bad example. Amazing how many different ways us carpenters have of doing things but I guess if it works why not. Thanks Dan & Roger
Hi Peter, the gun is very good. Similar weight to most gas nailers. I could do with a few extra inches.
Thanks for your comments. 🙏🏼
That was Rogers best wood saw that the chippy used to trim the breeze block, only Roger was too busy filming to notice James nip to the van and pass it up the scaffolding 😂🤣🤣😂
Great watching the young Lee Evans at work.
Thanks. 😂👍🏻
Well done Dan 👍
Another cracking video Dan/Rodger 👏👏
Thanks Mark.
Dan's Chippying is like my Plastering ............. Blinkin' BRILLIANT!!! ;-)
This works cutting any rafter. This shows the measurement points.
Love these videos 👍🏻
Hmm, not the long one's. I use a calculator and drawings. Common rafters can be cut in theory without getting on scaffold
Your channel provides good quality information. Thanks 🙏
Brilliant, this is eduction
Poetry in motion 👍
What a pro, great job ,i will have to watch this several times to get it ,but loved this video thanks to skill builders.
Glad it helped Check out Daniel's playlist on the link and you will see a lot more detail in his other videos on roof construction.
Great Tip 👍😎
Fantastic job Dan👌
Thanks Dominic.
Clever!
How’s the hilti nail gun treating you?
Mint job👌
Nice!
How you liking the hilti Dan? I’ve always been a paslode man, but recently bought one, great gun but defo top heavy!!
Hi Aidan, it’s very good. It’s feels similar to the other gas nailers I’ve used.
Love it. 😎👍
Good tip , thanks for sharing 👍🇮🇪☘️🤟👋
Great video
I think we should clone Dan 1000 times
Can your saw cut Accy nori to ?
Need to get you on tv . I could watch you all day its great to learn new stuff .
nobody watches television these days
Always a treat watching Dan. How did you get on in Edinburgh Dan?
Thanks Rob. Edinburgh was great, would definitely go back some time. Even managed 2 days fishing in the rain.
🙌🏻
Nice work.
Brilliant craftsmanship... I do miss our Robbin though
Wait for an earthquake! 🤣
Seriously though, love these videos 👍👍
Really nice tip with the nail same width the birds mouth will be, definitely trying this method next time.👍
nice.. slightly different to how i used to do it. ive not done a roof for about a year now... learned a load from watching the vids on youtube and im way more confident doing roofs now. that roofing square looks a canny bit of kit like
Brilliant
Another great tip from Dan learnt so much from this man what a legend 👏 see he's got a new nail gun, what's the hitting like 👍
Thanks football crazy ! Glad your enjoying the channel.
The Hilti gun is a friends so we tried it out. It’s very good, think I may get one soon.
🙏
Great tip, and please stop working in the rain Dan😆or people will think its normal😵
Most of the time when we film with Daniel is pisses down but coming up after Christmas we have some nice sunny footage of him building an Oast House in Kent
Thanks Del, it’s one extreme to the other usually.
Thanks for watching. 😎🌧
@@Ultimate-roofing-square. Gonna start calling you Dan 'the umbrella' Cox. As you are always out when it's raining🌧 😅
@@thetallcarpenter 😂👍🏻
☔️
Clever and simple. Brill. 👍
You could be describing Daniel and Roger there in that order
@@SkillBuilder 😂 not sure about that.
@@SkillBuilder 😂
Trying to teach my self cut roofing so I can build and do the roof as I'm a roofer but might be a dumb question lol but trying to get my head around all the cutting and angles involved but this vidoe is very simple so thank you but the timber you put on the Ridge plate with the nail in that already had a angle/plumb cut was that a calculated cut? And would this method work for any common rafter? As I may have a apex or lean to style door canopy suspended by gallow brackets so if I were to build my framing for that and attach wall plate I could use this method?
If yout got to our Home Page and type in Daniel Cox or Roof you will find lots of videos with very clear explanations. Daniel also has a free app for calculating the rafter lengths.
Wish I had seen this about 6 months sooner
Brilliant, however, don't see why that ridge was fixed, looked to me like it was a movable feast, and surly the pitch has to be within a certain tolerance depending on tiles/slates etc? still a great idea tho thanks
😱😱 0.1° Out Rodger ❓
WHERE'S JAMES 😜👏👏😉
Great tip as always. How do you rate that Hilti nail gun??
Watch this space for Dan's Hilti nailer review
Would say you’re a good carpenter but you still have all your finger tips lol only playing. Great video
great video you cant buy experience
I like that Hilti Nail gun Dan , but to rich for my blood 👍
Nice one, have u used pitch factor app.
Thanks. I’ve never used that app, I’ll check it out sometime.
I just then put my timber backing up with scrap bit of timber, lay another timber from the top of backing to top of ridge, lay phone on it, get pitch from app then use the ready reckoner to do common rafter. You way good too mate just a few ways to skin a cat, keep sharing mate
@@southdevonhomes-jonnystand4039 exactly, plenty of ways to do it. We wanted to try and show a very easy way with minimal tools. Thanks for watching.
Definitely, give my Channel a subscribe be much appreciated cheers loads of roofing stuff on there pal
@@southdevonhomes-jonnystand4039 I’ll check it out. I think I see one of your roofing videos. 👍🏻
Just used this clip to cut my birds mouths for a lean to. Excellent instructions, easy to follow and actually inspiring thanks to everyone at Skill Builder!
Glad it helped!
Brilliant tip.Are you going to show the lead going in?
I was taught bRafter Lengthy a genius who knew everything a carpenter needs to know about cutting a traditioal roof carcass. The first lesson was"All down bevels are plumb" Second was "Rafter Run and Rafter Rise gives Rafter Length.
Hi @danielcox. I run the Makita 18v system and am looking to upgrade my old skillsaw. What model do you have/ would you recommend? Thanks!
Hi , I use 2 circular saws. One is 18 v, not sure the model number but it’s a small blade, think 165 mm. It’s very light and use it daily.
The other is a 36v saw, 190 mm blade. It also fits on a guide rail so very versatile. It’s powerful, but likes batteries.
I prefer a right hand model, as that’s what I’m used to.
Thanks.
@@Ultimate-roofing-square. I bought the Makita 18v Brushless Circular Saw 165mm DHS680Z which is I think what you have. It’s a nice upgrade from my 2012 model.
@@audiorackcompany4468 it’s a great saw, thin sharp blade and you’ll be ripping away.
@@audiorackcompany4468 Check out the Makita 36V rear handle Skil saw. Great for ripping wet P.T structural timber. The 40V version is supposed to be even better, 👍🔨🇮🇪
If you want to find that pitch, measure the rise to third of rafter and the run.
Divide rise by run.
This will be 0. something.
Tan-1 of the 0. something= pitch
Great knowledge Dan.just wondering about the bevel you were using?looks like good one,what make is it? Thanks
Thanks Paul. It’s a bevel I made and I’ve been waiting to get a few more made up , however my metal man has been very busy. I will be selling them soon. Perhaps check out my Facebook page for updates.
#roofingsquare
@@Ultimate-roofing-square. Thanks for for the reply.I have ordered your square.waiting for Santa to deliver.will keep an eye on your Facebook. Thanks again
@@paulcarney5668 no worries. Thanks for ordering one, roll on Christmas!
All the best.
I love these quick tip videos. I got a roofing square the other month, lovely bit of kit well engineered, I know you've had lots of comments on the Hilti nail gun but whats the bevel you're using ?
Dan made the bevel and people keep asking him to sell them commercially.
@@SkillBuilder If the quality of his roofing square is anything to go by he should definitely put them into production.
@@chrisskinner4434 thanks for the comments.
Hopefully I’ll get the bevel out very soon..
They say the simplest ideas are best and this really proves that fact! Thanks Dan and Skillbuilder ,just did a mock up in my workshop and it worked brilliantly👍👍
Nice one Dan! Such a good way of doing it. And you chose the Hilti nailer, it looks a beast. How are you finding it?
Hi Ian, thanks. 👊🏻.
It’s good.. feels powerful.
🙏
Hi dan. Which cordless nailer would you pick if you were told 'this is the one you have to use from here to eternity'?
Hi @@kierandoherty1600 , good question. I’m liking the Hilti gun which I borrowed from a friend however I’ve only used it for 2 days. It certainly ticks a few boxes for me. I’ll probably buy one in the new year so perhaps ask in 6 months time.. thanks.
Great video lads, Dan could do that in his sleep
He did, I had to wake him up, which is always dangerous.
Quality
An old joiner taught me just to lay out a 3 4 5 on the floor to get the top, bottom and birds mouth cuts. Its so simple and accurate, you don't even need to know the pitch.
There are many ways to get there.
Really good tip for anyone without one of those Snazzy Stabila Digital Levels Dan 👍💯😉😁
🙌🏻 It’s a great toy. 😂. Thanks for watching Chris.
@@Ultimate-roofing-square. looks like it... Have to get one for myself mate! 🤩
@@burwoodbuild it will make it very easy to get the pitch of original roofs when extending.
I usually try about 4-6 rafters in different areas to get a happy medium. Now it’s a doddle.
Check out key blades, they done a good deal on the level. 😉
@@Ultimate-roofing-square. I imagine it will be a godsend for finding existing angles. Thanks for the tip... I'll check keyblades out! 🙏☺️
@@burwoodbuild definitely a godsend. 😉. Bet I don’t do a roof for a while now..
👊🏻🙌🏻
Do you say the rafter was too long?? How did you make it work after you did it??
Trimmed the plumb cut on the saw
Wow
I was kinda paying attention but also thinking I could do that simple enough bit boring this, then I saw the hilti nail gun and I thought you sir are a legend
Top of their game these lads. Nice trick 👍. One thing...its not much of a strech to cut the soffit seat cut..saves contortionist! I don't see this done in the UK. You can see where the soffit is running in. For example some lads will leave a decent gap which allows for dodgy brick line and drop timbers down onto the soffit...bit like the old way of framing the eaves. In any case much easier to do that cut
Good point!
Trigonometry is your friend!
Yep, rise divided by run.
Tan-1 of that is pitch
If uve got ur rise and going this can also b done by simply scaling down them dims by ten and step them sizes up the rafter on the one third line ten times and ull have ur plumb and birds mouth cut it’s a real simple and accurate way of achieving the same result
You can do all that with Dan's free app.
@@SkillBuilder there’s many ways to skin a cat but that’s the way I was taught to form a roof all them years ago it’s easy and works
You are about the same age as me, back in the 1960's we used a roofing square for everything. But you have
got to admit this is a real nifty/quick method of achieving the same outcome. I admire this man's way of
thinking, he has taken the welll known tricks for scribing and used them to find his rafter cuts, it's quick and easy.
@@jimwulstan8592 100% he’s a proper tradesmen and knows all the ways to form a roof I’ve always said the mark of a good Chippie is the way and the methods he uses to solve a problem or in some circumstances to get himself out of trouble
I see Dan's using a Hilti nailer instead of his usual Paslode?
Hi Jeff, I borrowed It from a friend to try out.
Thanks for watching.
Anyone know what that folding bevel Dan was using is?
It is Dan's, he made it.
@@SkillBuilder brilliant, he doesn’t miss! Get them out for sale!
