whack wow, this is so easy whack I’m really good at this whack
I built a chicken fence this way.
Hammer staplers are glorious but fucking difficult to get right!
Whack whack whack whack fuck!!! Hit the fucking wire whack whack whack whack goddamnit whack whack whack
To be entirely fair though I fucking love my hammer stapler and my complaints are entirely user error because hammer staplers are fucking amazing. So much better than hand-grip-activated staple guns.
I’ve used tack nailers as well and they also rock the socks off. Any pneumatic or mecnical driven device, oh boy fun!
The inspector allows a certain amount of misses
I have much worse in one spot (that I can see) in my garage. No telling how bad it gets inside the walls. About halfway down from the top the staples appear and veer off in a curve to the bottom at which point they’re a good five inches off the target. It’s pretty funny.
Also, just so everyone knows, those staples hold extremely well. They have an adhesive on them. They hold better than nails.
Nails have adhesive as well.
But do they allow all the misses for one whole structure to be on one fucking board?
This is why my couch broke after less than 6 months. There were, like, a hundred staples definitely not in the right place.
Ashley furnature?
DR Horton has entered the chat.
Those are just for defense
Uh… Shouldn’t you be using a 2*4 at a minimum, and not just a plank of wood?
What the fuck is a 2x4, and why is it only 1.5" x 3.5" ?
That is a 2x4, it’s just that the edge is fucked.
I guess the perspective is messing with my eyes and brain. The one to the right looks like a 2*4, the one in the middle doesnt. Maybe I need to go get my eyes checked.
Or brain.
It’s actually a 2x6
Measure 3 times, nail once…
Oooh yeah. Edge is still fucked, though
.5”-2” x 4”
Isnt the bolt in the footer supposed to have a washer?
And, a nut too, would be good.
Looks like new construction and they just haven’t gotten around to putting the nuts and washers on yet. Houses get inspected for this and many other things before the drywall goes up.
