Been so busy that it is nice to get back just Sawing. Had an order for 10 square of red cedar shingles. Nice to saw.

I bought the attachment for me boardwalk but I have only used it once. Are you cutting siding shingles or roof shingles? I could never find what length they should be either. I think I used d 24" billets. That is a nice looking stack of them you have there.

I have been asked if I could supply White Oak Shakes. NOT Shingles. Does anyone have experience in setting up machinery to split shakes?

Isn't it just faster to split by hand with a froe? Ans an adze to finish.
