Book Reviews of Full Length Roof Framer
Book Review: uncle pythagerous
Summary: 5 Stars
Trig calculators are for guys who wear visors, carry framing axes, and use sinker nails because they don't know how to drive a common nail. This is the book that the salty old man who takes pride in the fact that the house aint a quarter out; it's plumb level and square keeps on hand. I bought an extra copy for the old man who wore his out after 35 years, and taught me the value of doing things right. Read it and use it and you can frame any roof based on the principles it effectively teaches.Book Review: Essential Tool
Summary: 5 Stars
When I learned the trade 40 years ago this book was an essential tool in everyones box. My Dad gave me my first copy...which I lost right away. Everyone just called it Riechers, I am really glad to see it is still available in the original binding. The book also teaches the correct term and the language of roof framing which is important if you want to sound like you know somethingBook Review: A small book with all you need to know
Summary: 5 Stars
The was the first book that I bought on the subject of cutting a roof. The examples on laying out a roof are excellent. The nice thing about this book is that you can put it in your shirt pocket. I learned to cut a roof from the examples given in this book. I have used this book for about 25 years.Book Review: Full Length Roof Framer
Summary: 5 Stars
A must for every framer. It gives all your lengths on every 1/2 pitch calculated from the span instead of the run,so there's hardly any math involved. it also gives the application of all your basic rafter layouts. Don't cut a roof without it.Book Review: exactly what was needed!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book had everything Dan needed to quickly get the measurements for roofing. He'd had a copy several years before, loaned it, and never got it back. He is, once again, very glad to have a copy of this extremely helpful guide.
