   We use the term “Sub-Hip” for any Hip that runs from a corner other than a 90’ and “Compound Hip” for a Hip that encompasses two different pitches. . Thanks for the info. It’s hard to believe that it’s only 1” off a common run.

   It’s hard to believe that it’s only 1” off a common run.

   Probably because of the 17 on the 45 hip, but when you look t the drawing and see how the hip runs t 67.5 degrees it will make sense. After you scribe your first Octagon hip using 13 on the framing square with whatever pitch you're framing with you will see how the plumbcut fits perfect.Joe Carola

   13" or so close that 13" works fine

   Never heard the term sub hip before, but 13 works on octagon hips.
