The Wood Beam 26° is a sloped length of timber from the Supports tab of the build menu, pitched at the shallower standard roof angle and cut from two Wood. Run it as a rafter under a low roof, or as a diagonal brace inside a frame where a level beam would leave the corner with nothing underneath it.

How to Build It


Two Wood and a Workbench in range is the whole cost, cheap enough to overbuild with and strip back later. Watch the angle: a 26 degree beam only lines up cleanly with the other 26 degree walls and roof panels. Pick a pitch for the building before you start and keep every sloped piece on it. Bare timber also darkens and decays in the rain, so anything left outside the eaves needs a roof over it or a pass with the hammer now and then.
