Default How NOT to build a wall

Snipped but LOL! Best part was no floor anchoring. That was the least
fun part of finishing a basement but it's got to be done and done right.

Yep. One of the best things anyone has invented for building recently, is
the self tapping concrete screw. Trying to anchor anything in old concrete
used to mean a gunpowder powered nail, but now, drill a hole and drive a
screw. So easy. Also, if any of you don't yet have an impact driver
(cordless) you need to get one. They are the stuff for driving hard to
drive things like concrete screws, and deck type screws.
