Abstract
A method and apparatus for fabricating roofing crickets includes the steps of generating the dimensions of roofing cricket components, which when assembled, form the roofing cricket. Knowing the dimensions of each cricket component, a cutting assembly which utilizes a rotatable cutting saw and is controllable in an X-Y plane is controlled to cut each cricket component from a tapered insulation board. The cricket components can then be assembled into the roofing cricket.
