@simon_bowler: This my opinion on fixing Cedar Cladding….. I’m keen to find out what yours is…. See you in the comments… #cedar #cladding #screws #nails #carpentry
This is the best way to do it. Nail gun rough as toast and pins not substantial enough. Good job as usual 👍

Screws ftw, always. Can also be removed. To replace a damaged panel.

Agree that first fix nails are too harsh, 14 gauge pins however rather than the standard 16 are a much more effective fix. Not as good as screws of course but sufficient enough and 5 times faster

bowler what you think of a 1 and 1/2 nail gun lol I've often thought it would be great

Jack Ashton :
Pre drill and screws will always be a good option but if you’re looking to speed things up maybe look at roofing nailer that shoots a clout style nail, good fix less breakout
2024-03-11 22:33:06

chippysteve :
Try 15ga nailer

user5301855014671 :
The real reason is workmanship which is few and far between nowadays. The correct way of doing the job at hand. Too many wannabes that ruin it for the rest of us is the problem look at new builds

could u not use 2nd fix 2 in each place sent in on diagonal?

Jack Leggott :
Could you pin then screw every other stud? Should still be solid enough and hopefully not take up as much time😁

Hi Simon, I work for Senco and we do a 15g nail gun which are 1.8mm diameter which is between 1st & 2nd fix👍🏻

We like to use the stainless Spax TX’s, no need for pre drilling other than the end of the boards. Expensive screws, but save pre drilling every one

predrilled also keeps splitting down to a bare minimum. screws are always better nails with decking and fencing IMO

Paul MacDonald :
Agree, even with a soft nose on the first fix gun it’s to vicious and second fix don’t pull the board you’re fixing in tight. Screw is best 👍 loving your work 👏
