Removing cedar roof shingles goes pretty slick with these tear off tools. Stripping shingles is now a lot more fun.

  • i would have made burritos by rolling the shake up with the paper in 4 to 5 row sections small amount of cleanup after and you can get most material into the bin from the roof .. lol cedar comes of like butter on plywood or OSB XD

  • @Tumbleweed211 Hi Tumbleweed.

    Ive seen videos of your burrito technique. It seems to go pretty slick and save huge on clean up. Not sure if it will work here in the northeast, but I will be looking to try it on the next opportunity

    This particular job was a butter rip, but they dont always come up that easy. The powered version of the tool is some nice under those tougher conditions.

    The most awesome rip on the tube is the guy with the lull. Its a favorite on my channel.

  • What are referring to when you say ice membrane?

    Cedar shakes are supposed to be installed on furring strips or spaced decking. That install in the video is all mucked up.

  • Youre the expert, you tell me what ice membrane is. BTW, Im not installing. This is a tear off video.

  • Aren't cedar shakes supposed to be installed on furring strips rather than a solid wood deck and be installed without felt so they are air circulation on the bottom?

  • That system works well too. This is typical in my area. Air circulation is getting worse with the rampant use of ice membrane, they'll learn in a few years!

  • that's putting your back into it:

  • @2miangels I beg to differ we do it all the time, it's all in the techique but we don't use the pitch fork we use another tool.

  • oh the memories , sheer hell ! took a whole day for 211 sq ft. ashvault on cedar on cedar

  • @Tumbleweed211 TO BEGIN THERE AREN'T SHAKES THERE ARE WOOD SHINGLES AND YOU CAN'T ROLLED LIKE SHAKE WOOD SHINGLES.

  • how far does that tool send nails? into the next county?

  • **********Roofbutcher*********­*

    Are you going to respond to my question.

    What is ice membrane?

    I saw on another video you referred to something as ice belt. What is ice belt?

    What is the purpose of ice membrane and ice belt and how does it fit into a roof system?

  • This is a comment that roofbutcher sent me. Woa, look! Another Mr. Know-it-all with no videos of his own. Got the balls to post some so that WE can make comments? Didn't think so.

    Just think of it as constructive criticism.

    If you post videos on the net make sure your skin is a little thicker roofbutcher.

    Oh yeah, I almost forgot spell checker can be your friend.

    FYI... There is a box to check if you don't want anyone to comment on your videos.

    Your the one that coined that term (ice membrane). Not me.

    Let me copy and paste your comment in case you can't find it.

    ***The following comment from roof butcher is a month old at this point.***

    That system works well too. This is typical in my area. Air circulation is getting worse with the rampant use of ice membrane, they'll learn in a few years!

    Does that look familar roofbutcher?

    So my question stands. What is ice membrane?
