In this video we'll go through how to frame a rake wall efficiently. We'll get into lay out, how to transfer that lay out to the angled top plates, using LSL studs, and framing with an eye to keeping the wall strong for the lift. You'll see how we organize a two person crew to start from no lay out to having a fully sheathed wall ready for siding in 7 hours. Making an appearance in this video is the router pole, and how to successfully nail LSL together. I'll also get into why the sheathing isn't staggered. Lots to cover in this video, check the chapters below. Please remember I'm not showing the best way, just the way that works well for us. Its all a work in progress. Thanks for watching. Oh if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like YouTube if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course https://sso.teachable.com/secure/245841/checkout/1320802/bundle-remote-pilot-plus-maneuvers?coupon_code=FRAMERS100&affcode=245841_0eauthdo I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach.
