Good question benlovesnuk…..why the kink? Quite a simple answer really.
Jan wanted a Thai style roof with a curved slope and not the bulky roof as shown in the plans. But to make an identical curve in all the roof trusses would be very expensive and they would probably get it wrong anyway. So the compromise is the kink and hopefully when the curved end piece of wood is fixed to the gable ends, it will look like a traditional Thai curved roof.
