Great video, very well explained, i' ve noticed you put the shingles really tight together . Some say you should keep at least 1/8 between shingles in case they swell with high humidity

It is true, cedar shingle siding lasts 70+ years. My house has a double course, meaning it has an underlayment and overlayment. Repair is easy. It smells good after a rain. We love it. I must say, your corners are… interesting. Never seen that type done before because it tends to leak. The traditional corner is woven and it never leaks. But you have an underlayment that resists water intrusion so maybe that will work. Still, thank you for the video, it was very educational.

Such a great video. I've done plenty of cedar finishes for houses before and appreciate how you broke stuff done. Instant subscribed and shared with some buds.

Nice work. Personally I rather use nails over staples. I"ve had to do repair or remolding work and I find it easier to remove the nails if necessary.

I always used a straight board to sit the shingles on top of because it is three times faster and easier !!!

I learned a few things from your video thank you I do it with a jig so if my shed is 6 ft wide I get a 6-foot wide jig I cut out some of the edge on both sides so that it fits on the exterior planks but it it's flush with the cedar shingles then I do the level and then I can do a whole row of shingles.

I've also done it with random copper nails because I like the way the leeches after Time you get this gray and then you get this Green run

Nice work, what did you use for sheathing underneath the tar paper

Great video... I like the idea of using staples to mount your shingles, what is the size of the crown on them? Thanks.

I use an old table to work off first of all. It never fails to go to the job site either and I have two by fours that fasten to the table and I use it and my miter saw on every job anyways. Also I bought an electric stapler just for the ease of use and sometimes there is no hydro. I also use an Olfa knife so I always have a sharp tip for the cross cuts. I have red cedar shakes, and I wish you showed how to do over the window to shed the water. I will figure it out as windows can be quite different I just wondered how others do it.

Shouldn't the rows on the two walls line up with each other?

Thank you for the great video! I only thought it was a little weird that the shake lines don’t align with the shakes on the other wall.
Also, I just watched another video of a guy saying that the gap for expansion is needed, so I’m a little confused now if it actually is.
