> I am putting a traditional roof on my sons garage (wallplates already in position). Can anyone recommend a website or give me the best order of proceeding. For example is it best to start by putting ridge board into wall and putting a set of rafters at the gable end. I have never done one before but fancy having a go. Someone sent me a link to making the birdsmouth cuts so I am okay with that. Any advice or tips would be much appreciated. Thanks. https://rainguardroofs.com/ Neil
Hey Neil,

It's great that you're taking on this project! Starting with the ridge board and then placing the rafters at the gable end sounds like a solid approach. Make sure to double-check measurements and use a level to ensure everything is aligned correctly. Best of luck! If you need more guidance, feel free to ask.
