I dunno about that. You have to take it up, tack it in place, measure,
take it down, cut, remove the top, and install it. That's a lot of steps.
Right. A LOT fewer steps than trying to measure each stud.
You said he was a pro. With an inexperienced helper, it would be done
in an hour, tops. This is something a professional framer would've
figured out by intuition.
I gave you a really good solution to the problem. I'd be setting
trusses by now. :-)
Is this guy a missionary, by chance?

Solution presented -- Yes, but...
Another solution presented -- Yes, but...
The guy wants to use a Chop Saw with a Laser Rangefinder and he stated
three questions:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Questions:
1) Do distance finders allow offsets like that to be dialed in?
2) Is there a better/faster/smarter way to do this?
3) Is there already a tooling system for just this problem?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It appears that any answer to question 2 is invalid unless it addresses
the Chop Saw and a laser rangefinder.
