This is a very satisfying watch not lightly to do this work myself but if I were Robin’s skill level is where i would want to be he is real master of his craft. His videos should be shown in school’s and colleges to showcase what a real skilled job is all about.

My 11 year old boy is totally hooked on you Robin. He has now worked out how to use a speed square and has been waiting for this video. He has been asking if he can be your apprentice when his older. Can you reply and say hello to my son Franky. Cheers
Robin Clevett top bloke you are robin ??
Hi Robin clevett I like watching you building the roofs I made a birds mouth in my dads shed we made. I used a speed square and a hand saw. I want to learn how to make your fence for your roofing square and pitch roofs when I’m older. I live in Gillingham Kent. Say hello to Roger buy from Franky.
Hi Guys, that’s awesome that you want to be a carpenter Franky, well done for working out the speed square!! Its a great job being a carpenter and once you have a trade you will never go hungry and you can work anywhere in the world, I will give you a shout out in a future video what part of the country are you in maybe one day you could do some work experience with me? Have a great weekend
“Lean to roof” how far do you have to lean?
imagine being his apprentice it would be amazing
look forward to getting one of these roofing squares and the app… since lockdown mk1 ive went from guessing at roofs and faffing about with bevels and string lines and guessing… to having a fence for the rafter square i bought years ago and getting stuff to be massively more accurate and easier to do in a quicker manner. plus knowing itll work right from the start is amazing. makes me wanna do more and more roofs rather than worry about doing them
Really looking forward to this !
Also happy to finally have a master at work documenting the craft. A lot of brickies out their doing the same, the likes of Stu crompton but it’s great to see a British carpenter showing who’s boss awesome stuff ?
Anybody else noticed Robins haircut? He can pass of now as one of his apprentices.
Nice tidy job Robbin.good luck with the app. And by the way I’m glad you finally got the hair cut. You look 40 not 50. Tee hee
As a roofer its pleasing to see the roof pitched and bird mouthed onto the wall plate, this would be a joy to cover in !
Never been in the building trade but love to watch, find it fascinating ?
Would love to do a bit more of this kind of work havent done many roofs in my time.
Interesting video, followed you for a year or more on you tube. Nice to watch a fellow chippy at work but sadly I don’t mean to burst your bubble but have you checked out “Construction Master Pro” available as an App or calculator to do all the workings out for you. Keep up the good work.
Good video would be interested in seeing the new app ????
I LOVE ENGLAND SO MUCH

robin i would love to know how you laid out the plate and rafters around the bay window?
Great Robin, Thanks for all your input and advice. Been a chippy for many years but still learning??
I would think it would save a lot of time on ordering timber
Top notch work Sir, can I ask why you didn’t double up the headers on the opes for the Velux windows?
Looking Forward to getting me hands on one of the squares when there out and the app sounds great. I Use a Gibson metric square at the moment. Really, in joy your videos ?
