Love your videos keep up the good work.
But as a roofer, i wont criticise too much as its not a house roof so its not that critical, but i can see a few problems, first off the lats are placed too far apart and the shingles arent sat on the lats correctly 19: 30 the top of the shingle should sit half way on the next lat above. i see a few places where theres not enough cover (almost straight jointed, there should be a couple inches between the joints of each course of shingles. keep that in mind if ya ever make a building with a shingle roof, it would look excellent, ya did a decent job of it.
The biggest problem tho, no cover on the ridge its just open! get that ridge sealed up: D you can get wooden ridge tiles / hips

Oof, I felt that mistake with the fire bricks in my gut. Up there with one of the worst feelings when doing a project. Thinking you are doing everything right, being pretty proud of the results, then realizing you've got the completely wrong material/hardware. Luckily you had a pretty easy solution relatively speaking

You might try a block split. Once you do that first split in half do perpendicular splits rather than radial. Doesn't always work but some stringy woods are better that way. Spiral split works too, but probably need a bigger froe for that size lumber.

When you took that large cut piece of that tree and turned it into shingles, the only 2 words that can describe that is 'honkin' ridculous'! Another fantastic video. Thanks for all you do for us Mike!

always start with the fatter end, used to make chestnut pales/rails, same for shingles/shakes ect follows the grain alot better, splitting the skinny end 1st will 99% run out of the grain

Just use bark for now and then do the shingles another time. Once you make a shaving horse and get a hewing/carpentry axe.
edit Nevermind you already shingled the roof.

the blackened cedar looks great over the pizza oven, looks like they have been there a long time. you can always break down those twisted ash pieces for kindling

build a shave horse and use your draw knife - from other utube accounts I've seen this done - takes 1/2 a day to build then your adjusting of blanks will go fast

Consider trying to remove the bark first to get a quicker split with less effort. The bark has structural bonds that hugs the inner wood
