Advice:
Prior to fastening walls and installing rafters, take time to confirm your walls are level, square and plumb.
Measure diagonal at top and bottom of walls corner-to-corner. This should be approximately 159 7/8”. More importantly,
if measurements are not within 1/4”, your walls are not square. Adjusting now will make it easier to install roof section
.
