Save the hassle of figuring out the dimensions of a tail cut you want by using our preset templates, which are available for anything from 2x4 through 2x14 in size. You can even use these for non-standard or metric lumber sizes when scaled!

This set of digital plans includes three drawing sheets containing beam/rafter/purlin tail cutting templates. These drawings include templates for cutting the tails of dimensional lumber from 2x4 through 2x14 (or thicker material with the same depth). The following are included with your purchase:
8-1/2” x 11” sheet with 2x4 through 2x8 templates
11” x 17” sheet with 2x4 through 2x10 templates
17” x 22” sheet with 2x4 through 2x14 templates
These templates were designed and developed by Glenn Frazee, and refined after building a real-world example pergola.
After your order is placed, you will receive an email with a link to download the templates. The plans are included in one PDF document. You likely have a PDF reader installed on your computer already, but if not you can use the free program Adobe Reader to view the plans.
