We will be framing a ridge board/rafter style roof for the chicken coop in this video. I will show you how I find and cut the rafter angle as well as how to make the birds mouth cut. We will be using 2x4 rafters and attaching them to a 2x6 ridge board. This is my favourite type of a roof to build. Framing a roof like this one is really not as hard as It might seem, and I hope this video makes it easier, thanks for watching!
This is part 3 of the "Building a Chicken Coop" series.

17-year-old finishes high school and moves to live alone with his dog in the Canadian Wilderness. I had no real interest in pursuing a specific career path, and the stress and pressure of deciding what I was going to do was driving me crazy. I then realized that there was nothing stopping me from pursuing my dream life living off the grid in a self-reliant lifestyle. I headed to the north woods and began building a small cabin/tiny house. I plan to power the entire homestead with renewable energy, specifically solar power. As for water supply, I plan on a rainwater collection system in the summer months, and will retrieve water from the lake in the winter. The off the grid cabin will be heated with a wood stove that I will also use to cook on. Outdoor living in so incredibly peaceful as you are so in touch with nature. Eating natural foods and wild game provided from the land and simple, responsible living is good for the soul. I have chickens that will soon be producing eggs as a constant food source, and living next to a remote lake I also have northern pike as a constant food source. In the future I will be planting a garden and growing organic food! Join me and my dog, Cougar as we live off the land in the remote North. We are working on building an off the grid homestead to develop a life free from social and economic stress. The entire progression and development of the off the grid homestead will be featured on the channel. We will also feature content on bush craft, survival, outdoor living, primitive technology, outdoor cooking, fishing, hunting, and trapping as well. Thank you for watching Traplines and Inlines!
