ABSTRACT:
A template system for rafters for roof construction includes a plurality of individual templates, each dedicated to a single roof pitch. Each template is formed from a plastic material to have a base and a flange attached to the base by a living hinge formed in the plastic material. The flange allows convenience in positioning the template on a rafter stock in a position best suited to the user's own position. The edges of the template are oriented relative to the hinge to provide marking guides for various cuts for common, valley, hip, and jack rafters.
