5/4 x 6" yellow cedar boards Approx 600ft2 deck. will have a 3/16" gap
between boards. I'm looking for suggestions on how to attach them to the
joists. I refuse to face nail/screw for the sheer fact that I hate to
look
at screw heads ect. I'm thinking of predrilling and toenailing down on a
45
between the boards and then using either screws or spiral nails
(stainless
of course) anyone have any other ideas that i haven't thought of?
Pictures? thanks

I've heard tell that some guys have sistered 2x2s onto the joists, then
screwed upward into the deck boards. Might wanna put some sort of spacer
between the 2x2 and the joists, though, to facilitate air circulation.
YMMV.
