Dormer

Tip

Dormer roofs come in a large variety of shapes and sizes, but the building procedure is the same. The tricky part is building dormer roofs on a diagonal.

• Find and mark the “corners” of the dormer roof closest to the edge of the roof in Minecraft. If it is less than 2 wide, mark the center of the wall with one block

• Figure out the angle of the dormer roof’s walls perpendicular to the roof’s edge, and mark the corners closest to the roof’s surface. If it is less than 2 wide, mark the center of the wall with one block

Because dormer roofs vary so much from building to building, the rest of the construction needs to be determined by you.
