I got some shed plans off line the other day , they were for a 8 by 12 shed with a gambrel roof and I don't think they are right , the wall studs are 61 inches I think that is good but the roof truss are off the lower 2 by 4 is 26 1/2 inches with a 73 degree cut on one end and the other end is 47 degree cut , the upper 2 by 4 is 31 inches with a 75 degree cut on each end there is a total of 4 of these that make 1 truss , I did cut all 4 2 by4 like they said and the truss was way off , I would like to go with the gambrel stye roof I just need some help with making the right cuts , thanks
