thanks for the help! that was very generous of you to put that much time in..... learning when to select face, when to select face and edges, when to make into group etc.....when to not be afraid to erase a big chunk and start over!

Hi folks,

     I'm a builder who has unfortunately become addicted to Sketchup. But I'm building in sketchup like I build a house and I'm in the process of relearning. I'm attaching a skp file detailing a question: is there an easy way to align faces? I get in the middle of a complex roof and change many things and then one roof plane is the tiniest bit out of alignment with an adjacent one and I can't get a face.    Any suggestions to make it easier or faster would be much appreciated. 

Thanks,
