Plywood Screws Or Nails. I was wondering if screws or nails will hold it together better than the other. Nails are more popular amongst the carpenters as they are easy to work with it. I prefer gluing and screwing.
If you apply enough shear force to the side of a while screws are better fasteners when grip strength is needed and nails the best fastener for when shear strength is needed, either one will work.
Newer materials like magnesium and aluminum alloys have made the tools lighter. Now my question is nails or screws the depth of floorboards and plywood is 13mm what would you use? As when nails are hammered; Plus more attention has been paid to ergonomic design, so that the tool is properly balanced and easier to grip. I doubt the original floor boards are amazingly flat so you might benefit. I was wondering if screws or nails will hold it together better than the other. My subfloor is bottom layer= plank, then hardwood, i plan to add 2 layers of 3/4 inch plywood, what is best to tie this together. While nail guns (or nailers) have been around for about 25 years, many refinements have been made.
