    Installing vinyl siding with nail gun?

    When I did a 2 story rental by myself I found a star drive 1.25” long big head screw so much easier! I didn’t have scaffolding so hanging off a ladder and using roofing nails was almost impossible. These self tapping screws were the cats azz. I could adjust them in seconds if too tight . I...

    The table is cut to the final dimensions and the edges are routered with 1/8” round over bit . The top was rough sanded with 40 grit. I then flipped it over to the bottom side which ended up having a lot more damage. I learned a valuable less in which more than a couple of you warned me...
