Shingles and Shakes perform the same functions but are manufactured in different ways. A Shingle is produced by sawing a block of wood on both sides, giving a relatively smooth face and back. A Shake is hand split from a block of cedar, along the natural grain of the wood, and then re-sawn to give a textured face and smooth back.
