Shingle - Preserving the Old Skills

[BLESSINGSFORISRAEL]

I wish for this: That one man or human being would go and learn from this man till he could do it himself very well. Is this precious shingle making man still alive? If I were younger and had the opportunity, I would go and learn this trade.

Excellent film. We need more films that show how to preserve the old ways of doing things before it's too late. What a great house he builds! Drago is the man!

I sure wished I had seen this video before I tried to shingle a tree, it would have made things so much easier. Excellent video and very informative.

Most shakers I know can tell how the wood sounds out by wacking it with an axe(I can do it myself.Western Red Cedar gives off a different sound when you hit it,though).This guy is pretty good.

Geez, I would not want to go out to bars and pick up girls with either of you.
