roof angle

Twobirdz
when you go to build your flower shed and it comes time to constuct your roof frame,hold a 2x4 or 2x6 x 10ft.
up to the ridge and let the other end sit on the top plate of the wall.
have some one help you with marking the raft.Once you mark and cut your pattern,you'll have your pattern for the rest of your rafters.Mark all of them and cut then go to town on planting some flowers.
GOOD LUCK
GUMP
