Very interesting method of roofing. Watch those sharp tools lest you lose a finger! I just wish CZcams had been around when I was a youngster, my life could have been much richer.
NICE - no disco music, no rapping songs, no voice overs - just the natural sounds of the work, birds, forest .... just the way I like it! Thank you for posting this video - viel gluck!
I also applaud the use of only tool sounds without stupid music. Having constant ringing in my ears, I would plead with him to use ear protection when firing up the chainsaw.
Imagine watching a documentary of a guy producing and installing shingles for 20 minutes, just to realize he has worked on multiple buildings in your area. Just happened to me. Greetings from the beautiful Lavanttal (Lavant valley) in the south of Austria.
Im Jahre des Herr, 2021 sind die Geschäfte geschlossen und die Baumärkte nur für handwerkliche Betriebe zugänglich. Nun, das ist die Zeit wo man sich an die Zeit vor der Existenz der Baumärkte erinnern sollte. Also machen wir es wieder alles selbst. Danke für das aufschlußreiche Video.
Amazing work! I've only once had the pleasure of working such beautiful wood. It was 225 year-old western red cedar, about the same size as the blocks you used. It splits and rives like a dream. Thank you for sharing.
Really nice work, from start to finish. And I was so glad to see there were no nail-guns! Another 20 years and I don't think anyone will even know what a hammer is.
Tolles Video, tolle Handwerkskunst! Nicht nur die Schindeln, sondern auch das Dachdecken. Das ist großartige Arbeit und das Video ist ohne Musikbelästigung, wie es sich für Handwerkskunst gehört! Einen Dank in die schöne Slowakei!
Translated: 12:00 This is spruce wood from which shingles are made. It is best that the timber has been harvested in December, in the old moon because at this time the wood is of the highest quality. 16:43 So chopped shingles air-dried for about 14 days. Depending on the weather, the warmer is earlier they are dry. When dry, bind them 25 pieces together and load them on pellets. So that they are ready for impregnation. 20:30 I can not more nail it. Okay, now I have to move this. Igor! Give me the hammer down. 21:01 Good, just a little bit. Op, now it fits. 22:27 Here I have some pictures, which objects I have already renovated and covered with shingles. This is a church in Austria. Old state here you can see the new situation. This is in Lavanttal, also a church facility, big project. ✌
Could not figure out what he was going to make out the slabs he rived out, and then the last part shows what a beautiful work of art it turned into. Wow.
You are Correct, Sir. It’s getting more difficult to find-an ol’ froe in usable condition. I look in every antique stre, junk shop and outdoor flea markets across GA an AL,
An ax, and old ax broken off, used as a wedge and a home made mallet. Than he used a hatchet and a different mallet to make smaller wedges and to get rid of the heart wood. After that he used a Froe to make the shingles themselves.
Ein schönes Video! 👍 Ab und zu wären ein paar Erklärungen nicht schlecht, aber man kann dennoch einiges sehen und für sich mitnehmen. Weiter so! Gruß Thomas
Beautiful work. I like how neat the nailing was, but not in straight lines... it actually looks better. I saw two hammers missing a claw, what's that about?
- ja da fehlt ein Zeigefinger, das ist ein Markenzeichen für Tischler, Zimmerleute und Schindelbauer, natürlich auch für Leute die 5 Daumen an einer Hand haben, so wie ich. :-)
What kind of wood were the wedges made of? It looks like oak but the sound is different. That high pitch sound means it’s hard as a rock This video is beautiful
If I remember correctly, just drying for a day in special chamber. I don't know what was the temperature, but it has to be without oxygen. This changes internal structure.
Vermutlich ähnlich den alten Österreichischen Holzhütten die oft schon hunderte Jahre alt sind. Die nehmen meist heute noch Holzaschenlauge um das Holz zu schützen und haltbar zu machen statt moderne Holzschutzmittel die oft nix taugen.

Я так понял Словения...у них еще такие ёлки остались....на лучины такое дерево распускать....а насчет крыши..еще бы соломой покрыли и гордились. Чудные, прости господи.
Did a chain saw claim your digits? Never would have known till the end ! What determination, a solemn task indeed. Great and spectacular surroundings, peaceful in nature.
Great video. No music, no comments, no interviews. Just showing the work with natural sound. Why so few people understand that?
Most people are one dimensional sheep.
I agree completely. I often find myself watching CZcams with the sound muted.
Very interesting method of roofing. Watch those sharp tools lest you lose a finger!
I just wish CZcams had been around when I was a youngster, my life could have been much richer.

Check out "Mr Chickadee" here on you tube. Pretty much the same format, and wonderful craftsmanship!
That log had the straightest grain I have ever seen. Beautiful workmanship.
I also applaud the use of only tool sounds without stupid music.
Having constant ringing in my ears, I would plead with him to use ear protection when firing up the chainsaw.
I thoroughly enjoy watching these films. The fact that there is no music makes it better. Keep up the good work.

Great wood and a very skilled craftsman to work it. Never saw that type of shingle or shake made before so a treat to watch. Thank you Mr Pece.
great job.

wow!!! awesome work with your hands. Man just can't get over it. Great video
Was für eine Geduld!! Selber herstellen und dann noch selber zusammenfummeln!!! Ich ziehe meinen Hut!!
Il ne reste qu'à imaginer l'odeur du bois et mesurer la bravoure et l'expérience de cet homme....Magnifique en son nature et très bien filmé.

Another great video. Thanks. Greetings from Kent, England.
pshhh Newcastle for the win
lol
And from West Sussx now, was Kent. Are you in a green wood working group?
Спасибо! Красивая работа! Нужное дело !
A beautiful video! Thank you for sharing. I smiled for 24'14". Best regards from British Columbia, Canada!
British Columbian here too, I find this video inspiring because it shows a setting very similar to mine. Greetings from Vancouver.
I lived in Toronto 14 yrs,beautiful country,unfortunately got deported...wish I could go back..
Beautiful craftsmanship.
When I was a kid we used a froe to make shingles also. Not to many people know what a “froe”is or used for, this really takes me back.
Sometimes spelt as 'Froe' also known as 'shake axe' or 'Paling axe' , or even 'Shingle axe or splitter'.
You are Correct, Sir. It’s getting more difficult to find-an ol’ froe in usable condition. I look in every antique stre, junk shop and outdoor flea markets across GA an AL,
Great work - Amazing
If it looks that easy you know you're watching a master craftsman.
Fantastic wood, and amazing talent❤️🤠❤️
Sehr schöne Arbeit. Vor allem nachhaltig. So lange Schindeln habe ich aber noch nicht gesehen.
Fascinating. 👍🏻👍🏻
Good work. Greetings from a woodworker in Norway.
großartig! gute ehrliche arbeit.
Sehr schönes Video. Die offen,liegenden Nägel bei der Dacheindeckung werden der Schwachpunkt sein.
nice and great job ... cheers from Mexico ..
Watched again. Again, beautiful, thank-you.
What were the timbers used: the log, the mallets and the wedges?
Thank-you.
The one mallet appeared to be old-growth HDPE.
An ax, and old ax broken off, used as a wedge and a home made mallet. Than he used a hatchet and a different mallet to make smaller wedges and to get rid of the heart wood. After that he used a Froe to make the shingles themselves.
I wondering also. Sure is clear of knots.
Logs looked like pine.
Mostly fir
I had no idea that you could use a froe to make boards! I've only ever seen that tool used to make shingles! Thanks for teaching me something new!
Those ARE shingles, just very long ones.
Richtig geil wenn man Holz lesen kann, wie man es in Form bekommt. Klasse
Singvögel Hochkant a
Old world skills. What craftsmanship . What kind of wood? Spruce
EXTRAORDINARY!!!!!!!!!!!!from Australia
Perfect.
Fantastic work. My question is what species of wood here in the States would provide for such long straight grain devoid of tear-outs?
Possibly cedar or cypress
Ein schönes Video! 👍
Ab und zu wären ein paar Erklärungen nicht schlecht, aber man kann dennoch einiges sehen und für sich mitnehmen.
Weiter so!
Gruß Thomas
Der Holzhammer ist ja genial.
Klasse Video , Schade das das alte Handwerk ausstirbt .
Awesome Video! Just wondering if larch shingles would last longer?
Yes they would. But spruce wood is also picked from higher locations, where it grows slower and have consequently denser rings.
Alright thanks Miha! :-)
대단하세요.. 보고 배웁니다.
excellent traditional craftsmanship.
great work, good video
pekna praca! die schoene arbeit darf nicht verloren gehen !
I wish I knew what you were saying you're a great Craftsman
Beautiful work. I like how neat the nailing was, but not in straight lines... it actually looks better. I saw two hammers missing a claw, what's that about?
Coolest thing I have seen all day.
- ja da fehlt ein Zeigefinger, das ist ein Markenzeichen für Tischler, Zimmerleute und Schindelbauer, natürlich auch für Leute die 5 Daumen an einer Hand haben, so wie ich. :-)
meiner ist gerade wieder angewachsen (zimmerer):-))
Ich hatte Glück,Hobelmesser stumpf,Fleisch nur geplatzt(Schreiner)
That is really awesome!
i like this video very much. thank you.
Майстрам моя повага і респект такі люди на ціну золота в наший час.
Fascinating
Very interesting!
What is the name for the splitting axe used in the video? (The Froe)
Pula Knaka.
What kind of wood were the wedges made of? It looks like oak but the sound is different. That high pitch sound means it’s hard as a rock
This video is beautiful
gran trabajo amigo saludos desde mexico siga subiendo sus videos
Super
This is true craftsmanship.
Anyone know what brand froe he is using?
anyone know the wood species and if he had to treat it for that purpose thanks ?
Can water leak from the roof in the following days due to rain?
Formidable...!!
Looks like he ia making shingles. A worthy trade and useful one also.
Love it
Wie lange dauert ein solches Dach? In wie viel Jahren muss mann es wieder neu machen?
From 15 to 30 years. Larch shingles hold longer than spruce ones.
Thank you for the quick response. What is the impregnation process?
If I remember correctly, just drying for a day in special chamber. I don't know what was the temperature, but it has to be without oxygen. This changes internal structure.
Thank you.

This ol’ boy is hard on the axe handles :)
Is that a templars church?
I love the acme mallet.
Wait, a husqvarna in stihl country?
This guy has the best kindling pile in town.
Am curious.
Why all your hammers have half the claw gone during install?
This is the most common hammer here, german style claw hammer. I don’t really know why it only has one spike, but it’s useful.
@@igor-zb9vd thanks for the reply.
Am woodworker in USA. I know some roofing hammers here are similar, especially for slate.
@@igor-zb9vd The claw is fully there, but the european roofing hammer has on one claw a spike. It's for moving purlins on the roof.
What is the guy's name? Where does he live?
His Name is Miha and he come from Slovenia.
Vidéo trés instructive ;-)
Were those nails long enough? Dunno just an American asking questions....
To je v prelepi SLOVENIJI
And I tell you.. that’s a darn roofer there.
Wo ist das Stück vom Zeigefinger? Verloren bei der Arbeit?
Actions speak louder than words... and the ending?
A roofer who makes his own shingles?? You just don’t see that very often in the states.
Yes but his roof is tin lol
what the type of wood is it...?? cedar ,pine...???

Warum werden die Fichten/Tannenschindeln nicht geflämmt? Nur Oberflächlich dürfte die Haltbarkeit aber trotzdem nach oben setzen.
nice way of laying shingles. makes an ornate roof. more than one way of skinning a cat.
Sind das alles Lärchenschindeln? Oder würde sich evtl. auch Esche dafür eignen?
Es werden dafür seit je her Lärchen genutzt. Aufgrund der besseren Haltbarkeit und Spaltfähigkeit.
Y como los protege del agua?
Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
Mediante la impregnacion (con sales de cobre, por ello el tinte verdoso)
Ricardo Hoffmann.

😯⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️‼️
Sulfato de cobre, nitrato, calcio, etc supongo.
Gracias.
Una ignorancia menos😂😂😂
True to form for a chronic woodworker, he's nipped off his right index finger sometime past...
Very cool
He does all this work in a shed with a corrugated steel roof?
Love the sledge hammer
nice video ,greeting from Serbia
I thought he was barking up the wrong tree at first. But I Saw that I was wrong. Wood you please forgive me?
You know he's a good woodworker when a digit is missing
really? no daubt he‘s a good craftsman, but loosing a finger is just very bad luck.
вот это дранка ! супер )))
Excellent until I saw the copper impregnated shingles being nailed with standard nails. Roof's future enemy is mostly sun and quickly rusting nails.
Я так понял Словения...у них еще такие ёлки остались....на лучины такое дерево распускать....а насчет крыши..еще бы соломой покрыли и гордились. Чудные, прости господи.
This is not a bad thing to leave nails exposed to the elements?
Did a chain saw claim your digits?
Never would have known till the end !
What determination, a solemn task indeed. Great and spectacular surroundings, peaceful in nature.
