This video teaches a simple method for determining the pitch of a rafter using only a speed square and a chalk line. The technique involves aligning the speed square with the rafter and using the chalk line to mark the pivot point. The resulting measurement on the speed square reveals the rafter's pitch, allowing for accurate replication or extension of existing rafters.
