Hi there, 

I am hoping that someone can point me in the right direction here. I have successfully built a split-entry home with a gable roof style; however, I need to make an A-Frame entrance. Photo Below. Any recommendations welcomed. Thanks!

The good news is that it's doable. The bad news 

is that I probably couldn't repeat the process. :huh:

Just keep in mind that the "Join Roof Planes" tool

will be your friend. I attached the plan I used for

you to poke around in.

That's so easy just break the wall at the point where you what the a frame...then change it to gable and increase its pitch after you can cut and edit the roof manually...which version of CA are you using?
