I'll keep that in mind. My projects tend to be more of a join&raise. 
When done properly, and with the advantage of modern communications, 
it's theoretically possible to have 20 carpenters in different 
locations make two pieces each and have them come together to raise a 
40 piece frame. That's if you use square rule, which is admittedly a 
later invention. I will join up all the timbers into a big stack with 
numbers, and then raise them up quick. If using the scribe rule, each 
carpenter would have to frame a "plane". The planes intersect on the 
square rule. If you've ever done scribe you know that you rough cut the 
joint, then test fit, scribe and final fit. It has some possibilities. 
I'm normally not that organized and design on the fly. Tough to work as 
a group that way.
