Summary: uncle pythagerous
Comment: 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.

Summary: archaic tables for occasional roof-cutters
Comment: If you cut an occasional roof, and want a handy reference, this is the book, especially if you're doing straight gable type roofs. The reason I say "archaic" is that the hand-held pocket calcuator has made the use of "tables" obsolete long ago. If you're serious about learning the almost-forgotten art of true roof-cutting, multi-hips with broken ridges, and so forth, get yourself a good little trig calculator, a used introd. trig text, and a copy of "A Roof Cutter's Secrets to Framing the Custom Home" by Will L. Holladay. Another useful albeit impossibly esoteric text is "Roof Framing" by Marshall Gross, for the truly hardcore.

Summary: Indispensible for Roofing
Comment: I have had this book since 1975, and in the past 25 years this book has been my bible for roof framing. I wouldn't do a job without it. (Using my wife's username: I'm the carpenter, not she.)
