This video will show you how to Frame a Lean to Shed Roof, step-by-step. Specifically, I will show you how to cut your shed roof rafters to size, how to make birdsmouth cuts, and how to install the plywood roof decking.

There are many different ways to frame a lean to shed roof, but I used 2"x6" pressure treated lumber for my shed roof rafters.

When framing your lean to shed roof, you want to plan our your rafter layout so that your plywood roof decking is fully supported along the edge.

The video will go through every aspect of the DIY Shed Roof Framing Process that I used to build my Modern Shed.
