Steps to Build a Roof in Sons of the Forest

To build a roof, you will want to collect the necessary materials. Depending on the roof size you are going for, collect as many logs as possible. For this guide we’ll use an example roof involving over 20 logs; if it isn’t big enough, you can continually expand it with a higher number of logs.

Use four logs for the base, four for posts, four to connect all the posts, and five to cut in half, making it a total of 10 for the floor and the roof. Follow the steps below to create your roof.
