Add style and elegance to your pergola, even if you have absolutely no design experience!

These printable rafter tail design templates can be made with your desktop printer, cut out with scissors, and easily traced on the ends of 2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, 2x12, and 2x14 lumber boards. You don’t even need to use a tape measure! After tracing, the rafter end treatments can then be cut with a jigsaw or bandsaw.
