Congratulations on the award! Seems like a significant honor in your field of work. Well done.

[@RRBuildings]

thanks

[@rualert1602]

You've made a number of videos of product shows but this is the best. Nice to see Greg get some face time.

[@RRBuildings]

I had to pull his leg lol

[@alaskanawesomeness9017]

Very cool. Can't wait to move down out of here so I can get in on those kind of expos

Congratulations! Builder of the year! Also getting very close to 200K Subs!

[@RRBuildings]

insane right?

[@joeshmoe8912]

Thank you Kyle for sharing this. I dont get a chance to go to any shows and I love seeing the new tools on the market. Those cougar paws look amazing. Also congrats on the award. You guys totally deserve it.

[@RRBuildings]

Thanks Joe

Looking forward to seeing you use these during your next build.

I'll take all of these Vids you can make. You are a natural at this. Very interesting. I love the questions from a professional that actually uses the products. Thanks a ton.

[@RRBuildings]

thank you sir.

I'm picturing those cougar paws to get filled with metal filings and scraping the hell out of a roof.

I have a complaint. This video isn't long enough. MORE TOOLS !!!

[@giovannifiorentino8947]

I like you taking the time to present the tools representatives. It will be awesome if Larry (semiautomatic sheet metal bender) gives the names of his clients base on the geographical area in order to be able to use their services. Great detailed thorough video without wasting time.

[@lancerussell666]

Congratulations ! nice ! you worked for it. its fun watching your vids cause your full of information and have great since of humer good job

[@andyrickfrock6084]

I bought a pair of cougar paws 13-15 years ago, walking roofs is no joke, the angle can be hard on ankles and constaly up and down, I do not rember what I paid, at the time it seemed reasonable for what I was getting, the replacement pads I thought could of been cheaper, I mainly did residential, aspahalt shingles tear through the padding so fast, they didn't even make it through a 30 sq. Roof before the pad was gone and it was tearing Into foam that was structural to the boot, however my biggest complaint is how uncomfortable they were. I was 17 or 18 at the time in amazing shape, and within a few hours of wearing them my feet and ankles hurt to the point I couldn't stand being on my feet, save your money and just use old sneakers and couch cushions foam

[@mlwadester87]

Kyle, I'm an adjuster and have a number of coworkers that have bought and use Cougar Paws. They use their Paws for steep stuff only and then wear their Keens or Merrils on stuff that isnt steep. Extends the life of the pads and the boots.

[@RRBuildings]

Thanks man

[@micahwatson9017]

Lol, first thing I thought when I saw the standing seam prep table was what about the closure tabs? Thanks for the answer.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Congrats on the award. I love trade shows.

[@TokyoCraftsman]

Nice to spend a day inside out of the snow I bet LOL. Cheers from Tokyo!

[@RRBuildings]

yes sir it was a great show to walk and talk to vendors

[@michaeldonato4936]

I'm a solar site evaluator and I walk on 4 or 5 roofs a day. Cougar Paws make me feel so much safer once the tilt is over 35 degrees.

More of these types of videos please ! !

I love cougar paw, but I took that black shoe armour goop and applied it to shoe were it wears out and now they last, they do grip good on roof

[@konstantinivanov1986]

I still have the first batch cougar paws for shingles have just been replacing the soles. I dont roof every day but i used them a lot and they are holding. Wont wear any other shoes on a roof anymore

[@cjjack-qk9qp]

Congratulations on the award you deserve it. I am looking at the bell auger thinking that shaft my be short as we get into 4 - 5 foot hole depths or do they have extensions? Personally I dont like to use extensions just one more hinge point. I think the concept is awesome. His marker should be up to the top for better viewing from inside your cab loader, just my opinion. I may have to get one to try out. Keep up the great videos

[@RRBuildings]

All great input!! Reach out to him let him know you saw my video and he will hook you up

[@gandolph3]

Hey. Nice video :) sometimes my feet were burning through the boots from roof in Florida’s sun. Interesting how these boots would hold up.

[@taylormchenry2712]

Cougar Paws have made impossible jobs with any other shoe possible. I'm a chimney sweep and work on roofs daily. I bought them two years ago trying to find something better than a gum sole and when there were probably only 4-5 youtube videos on them for reviews, i always recommend them to coworkers.

[@RRBuildings]

Awesome to hear

[@regopit44]

Congratulations!

[@jeremybrenden2778]

Cougar Paw shoes, Hes right though done a many roofs over many years using couch cushions! It works awsome, not really convinced by the shoe though.

[@kmonnier]

When is the show in Des Moines?

Next year same time frame

[@robscott5388]

I love the Amish walking out of the show. They do a lot of post-frame in my area- great work and super nice to work with.

[@jaymoolah5031]

I always wanted to ask the Cougar Paws creator why he doesn't make something for bare plywood, would be great to have something like this when sheathing a 12/12 as opposed to tearing a roof off

Awesome video.

Congratulations on winning the award. I am confident your customers would have totally supported your nomination. My question is, how many of the tools that you showed us are going to be in your shop? Maybe a good giveaway question?

What free tools you get this year

[@PilchPlays]

Those automatic breaks have been around fro a long time. Though back when i was programing them they didn't have the touch display or a graphical representation of each step. The machine didn't give you suggested operations either. Had to figure that out on my own. Also had to save the program to 3.5 floppy. Loved that snap table system.

[@gregcoste5332]

question? .. why is a single sheet of roof steel preferable to 2 or 3 sheets layered shingle style? .. seems like the single big sheet is more delicate and less adjustable than layered roof steel?

To do postframe find a crew that does it in your area and apply. Where I live there’s a lot of different company’s that hire and teach pretty much anyone

[@nickolaswilkus5145]

I bought 3 pairs of cougar paws metal walkers a few months ago and the didn’t last 3 days. The magnets pulled out of the bottom that had been held in by duct tape. We put them on when we got on the roof and took them off when we got off. I was not very impressed. Not worth the price tag. Now there shingle boots are a different story we love those.

What!!! I’ve had same Pair for almost two Years

Your awards plaque was given to the homeowner that you built the house for? I hope they display it with pride. I would have scanned it, given them a nicely printed copy, and selfishly kept the original. In a previous video I've just watched, you had a stack of Cougar Paws boots in your equipment trailer. You're pleased with their performance?

[@steven_farmer89]

“...not legal in California.” This is why I love this channel. Great work

[@johnmakbuilds]

Great Channel BUT...... So I have been watching some of your videos lately to try and teach some of the new guys some tricks on buildings we don't necessarily specialize in since we re focused on custom Modular Home Construction. Lately many clients have been purchasing second homes and looking for large barns, garages for car collections or workshops on the properties. The only thing I have to say that disappointed me was the reference from Chase as to being the "head janitor" I brushed it off as a young guy a little pressured by the camera and though I didn't it wouldn't expect you to defend the "janitor" role, I was surprised that you went with it. At the end of the day we are also blue collar laborers. We may have been fortunate enough to excel our business where we don't have to personally be so labor intensive yet we shouldn't forget where we started and that we would not be able to be anywhere without others, especially janitors. That show wouldn't be what it is if there wasn't a janitorial staff preparing it to what it is. I was never a janitor, I was a cleaning guy who hoped to one day be a janitor with a stable job, benefits and even join the union. I wouldn't say I surpassed that, I just went a different route. I want to add that I'm sure you meant no disrespect. You seem like a successful straight shooter, honest business man who treats people with respect. Your channel is great. I only subscribed to 2 maybe 3 channels at the most with yours being one of them. I hope you get a few minutes to read this and if you agree with me, maybe a mention in your next video about janitors and the importance of any job and working man does. In this world of social media, one mistake can snowball into nonsense. I hope this didn't come off rude in anyway. I felt that if I didn't mention it, others were thinking it and it could hurt your brand overall. I apologize for any misspellings. Keep up the Great Work!
