when we were building we too needed gable vents to fit odd pitched roof lines and specialty shaped vents... I bought the cedar, ripped it on the table saw to sizes I needed for louvers and frame..Then used a compound miter to cut the required angles of all louvers... Used glue and a brad nailer to assemble and screen on the backside... 20 years later and the vents are still like new... Store stock will limit your choice and likely have only standard pitch units.. tj
