@george_greb you are correct they should be about an inch above the exposure line. Good catch, thank you.

Nice job. I have a few cedar shingles that need to be replaced. This video gets me started in the right direction.

Stop looking at your video since you’re not using the proper tool you’re not teaching the Proper Way, Next

[@alittleofalot5171]

Actually, all of the techniques I am using are correct. The only thing you aren’t seeing me use is the proper nail removal tool. Since this is a small job and can be done with the tools shown I didn’t want to spend the $50 on the proper tool. If you have a large job or feel the need to buy every tool for every small job you do, go ahead and buy the referenced shingle ripping bar.

@@alittleofalot5171 I have a question about the shingle ripping bar, I searched for it and only came up with slate rippers that looked like you described it with the nail hook/cutters on the sides. Is there a ripping bar that is specific to cedar shingles? Also if it matters I have cedar shingle siding that is pretty thin compared to these in the video which I would have called shakes instead of shingles but I'm no expert
