It's not just how things look either. My inspector made some what of a deal
out of the fact that i didn't have anchor bolts on my sill plate within 6"
of the end of the boards. BUT, they never even questioned as to how or if
the floor joists were fastened to said sill plate. HMMMMMMM..... go
figure.


It's just stuff like that, that make you see how much of a joke the whole
code thing is.

Not if fit and finish mean anything to you. You can meet code and have
a very ugly job.
