Abstract:
A shingle cutting device for use in roof valleys includes a base body having an upper surface and a lower surface and a handle device mounted on the upper surface. An inverted, generally C-shaped roof valley-engaging guide channel is formed on and extends along the lower surface of the base body, and a blade support arm is mounted on and extends outwards from the base body, the blade support arm having an inner end and an outer end. A blade support device such as a blade clamp is mounted on the blade support arm adjacent the outer end thereof and a shingle cutting blade is removably mounted in the blade support device and extends downwards therefrom, the shingle cutting blade operative to engage and cut shingles to form a straight cut shingled roof line which extends generally parallel with the adjacent roof valley.
