Can you advise, after installing the angular hump legs – you need to nail the rafters of the intermediate – how to align? Also , do I need to put plywood under the notches for the wall batten?

No, just make the notches the right depth.

How do I know the right sawtooth on the spot?) Stretch between the corner legs 3 strings at the bottom, top and middle? Attach the rafters legs and watch how much rises the thread? I do not understand(

Threads in the place of the bar, measure vertically from the wall plate to the thread, postpone this distance on the rafter.
