I used nails in mine for the floor joists, the walls, and roof trusses
etc. Decking, siding and interior walls etc I used screws. Metal
roofing got screws too, w/ rubber grommets and a shot of silicone on each.

Hi all,

I started a thread a few days ago about building a shed, but instead of
adding this to the tail of that thread I thought I'd start a new
thread.

Anyway, for a standard 10x12 shed would you guys suggest using nails or
screws? I assume screws are more secure, but I'm not sure. Also if I
used nails, what's involved in getting a nailgun? I have a large
Craftsman air compressor I can use.

Thanks...

Ringo
