gable frieze boards on one side but not the other

I thought I would give a shot at uploading a video to YouTube and share it here to ask a question. Some times I can get wordy trying to explain some things with images, and maybe a video will be easier for some things. Here we go...

 

This is about putting frieze boards on one gable end but not on the other gable end. I made two roofs on the same plane and removed the frieze boards from one gable end. Is there another way of doing this?

 

Ok, the iframe link I added from YouTube did not work in the text - I will figure that out. So I uploaded my mp4 zoom video into the upload area. I think it worked...

It was a bad recording - trying again in a moment...

I use a separate layer set for the rear elevation (for example) when I don't want to show some trim elements.

The separate roof method you used seems perfectly acceptable, but another way would be to use a molding polyline to build the freize.  
Roberts method works too of course.

Thank you guys! The more I get into the roofs the more I like them - and yes, I'm going to admit even better than ADT. A lot more flexible and so far I haven't been stumped.  

You can even see I made a room divider and made the rear wall taller and put my roof back together! This is exciting! I'm really enjoying this! Now I need to get back to ADT and start my next job <_<
