Hi
I would like to know what is the best nail to use for nailing regular
eastern cedar shingle on particle wood panels. this is for a backward
project in eastern Canada.

Can't say I've ever nailed a shingle to particle board. Butt, on cdx
plywood I use a bostich narrow crown stapler. For outdoor projects, make
sure to use stainless staples.
