This means that when you look at your bed from the side, your boards will appear slightly bigger than they do when you look at your bed from the head or foot, but all should match. The face of your roof boards should match that of your posts and both will have the face side of your board (the 2 1/2″ side) run the length of the bed (the longer sides) rather than the width (the shorter head and foot). **Note that these pieces will sit flat for beveling as well as when you secure them to create your pitch. Be sure to countersink and pre-drill so your screws are flush. Once you have your 2 roof units created, you can secure them to your posts using glue and 2″ wood screws, downward from the top edge of your bevel down into your posts. Please be sure to set the short piece to the inside edge of the longer piece as you see in the diagram. Once you have beveled the end of each board, you will create your pitch by securing the straight cut end of one long and one short piece together. Be sure to keep the length as directed when you do this. ![]() Once you have them cut to length, bevel one end of each board at 45°. One side is going to be 1 1/2″ longer than the other.
