[QUOTE="Harmon, post: 3343143, member: 24357"] Emm- really? Okay. I will have to check into that, electric would be so much quieter and so much nicer to use (not as heavy). Outside construction is done with either generators or you can get electricity run to the job by the power company, or ask a neighbor (residental, not businesses) "mind if I pay your electric bill for a little while?" Power is run to "10 Power Boxes" where you plug in and get as much as 220V Emm- not sure of the method but most plywood (up to 5/8" thickness) can be put down with nails 2 1/8" long. Or perhaps you mean rafters, which are toe nailed (45 degree) with nails 3 1/8" to the top plate. The thickness of construction material is off by a bit- a 2 by 4 is actually 1 1/2" by 3 1/2" which is the norm for most materials Its cool, I have never heard of a few things you mentioned and had questions, need not go further. Thanks for the story, it was something I will remember the next time I am working (if every again) in construction (hopefully not, ever again). Take care, and peace :) [/QUOTE]
