To measure to 1/32 accuracy we simply add a plus sign to the 4+. So that’s twelve and nine thirty seconds, but we never said thirty seconds. It was twelve and four plus.

I learned that 28 years ago by overhearing the drywall guys on a commercial job. Always call out whole individual numbers with an AND. If no fraction, then say 6 1 even.

Take the mudsill and place it over the anchor bolts and smack it with a hammer over each bolt. It will make a dent in the board and you'll know exactly where to put the holes. Some of the anchor bolts may be a little too low to dent the board, so drill out the holes for the higher ones first, then put the board back on over the bolts and smack it again and the lower ones will show up on the board. Way faster than the old fashioned method. I promise

The "slide" only occurs on the first nail. So, if using a nail gun, there is no need to alternate to avoid banging the wood out of alignment like when hand nailing. There is no horizontal stress on the wood, so 3 on one side are more than enough to keep the board in place when under load.

He was doing layout on the top plate and the mud sill at the same time. He nailed them together to keep them aligned for his marks to be accurate. The key to 24"OC framing is alignment of the vertical members between floors. The studs above need to be in vertical alignment with the studs below for proper load bearing.

Surprised to see your mud sill install. We use a foam seal and tin termite barrier under the sill plate. Guess that isn't code in your area.
Wish I could use the borate pressure treated stuff. Would be nice to be able to use bright nails instead of galvanized.
This might sound strange, but wiping with your hand is a habit you should try to get rid of. Use a brush. Even with gloves, one day you will wipe and get a splinter or a damn cut from a piece of swarf. That ruins your day.

Callouts are funny, 61 and an eighth can quickly turn into 60 and 1/8th. Again, don't make me think, we don't do thinking around here, I emphasize the division of whole numbers to fractions.
@briangc1972

That is why they call out 6 1 and 2 for 61&1/8. The AND is the indicator of the upcoming fraction. 6 1 and 2 can not be mistaken. Like he said, 5 8 and 2 instead of fifty-eight and 1/8th. I learned that 28 years ago by overhearing the drywall guys on a commercial job. Always call out whole individual numbers with an AND. If no fraction, then say 6 1 even. Never had a helper misunderstand me using this system for 28 years.

Take the mudsill and place it over the anchor bolts and smack it with a hammer over each bolt. It will make a dent in the board and you'll know exactly where to put the holes. Some of the anchor bolts may be a little too low to dent the board, so drill out the holes for the higher ones first, then put the board back on over the bolts and smack it again and the lower ones will show up on the board. Way faster than the old fashioned method. I promise

Do you find it just as okay to nail the 3 toenails from the same side versus the slow34 but I feel more secure way to go 2 from one side and 1 from the other? I feel it has less opportunity to slide one way or the other. It probably would add an extra few seconds to each toe nailed stud but I wonder if it’s worth it
@briangc1972
2 жыл бұрын
The "slide" only occurs on the first nail. So, if using a nail gun, there is no need to alternate to avoid banging the wood out of alignment like when hand nailing. There is no horizontal stress on the wood, so 3 on one side are more than enough to keep the board in place when under load.
