30-34°

Concept here is to use a metal connector gun for predrilled holes.

Framing

3"

  • HF - 30 deg 3" ring shank exterior grade 3 cents [1], 2.5 cents for smooth [2]
  • Menards - exterior - 5 cents ring shanks .120 [3]
  • Menards - interior smooth - 3" .120 30-34 deg .120 2 cents - [4]

2-3/8"

  • HF 3 cents HF 30 deg .113 ring shank [5]

For Use as Metal Connector

Makes quick work of metal connectors. For the PV runners, longer HDG nails are useful.

1.5"

  • Check.png1.5" .148 galv 4.5 cents menards [6]
  • 1.5" metal connector Menards $40 for 1000, Grip-Fast - 0.148 shank - 4 cents - [7]
  • Bostitch at Menards, 1.5" metal connector - .148 shank - galvanized - 5.5 cents -[8]
  • Bostitch not galvanized, .148 - 4.5 cents - [9]
  • 1.5" metal connector - .148 shank - 4.1 cents - [10]
  • Bostitch 1000 $67 1.5" 0.131 - 6.7 cents - [11]

2.5"

  • Check.png2.5" Bostitch metal connector 500 for $32 0.148 - 6 cents - [12]
  • 7.3 cents nail gun depot .148 [13]
  • 9 cents HD, but .161 shank [14]
  • 7 cents HD [15]

For Use with Metal Connector Gun

To do connection with predrilled holes, such as trim angles.

  • Check.png2.5" .113 Versadrive, exterior rated. Plastic strip. Menards. [16]
  • Would 2-3/8" nails work with the gun as well? Or will the tip not stick out? Test it.

Non-Metal Connector

15°

For cordless siding gun. Can use cordless siding gun for trim. If using scrails, this qualifies for lifetime design in removing trim or other removable parts.

  • Check.png Menards - 1.75" 0.08 coil, 4200 nails, $75 - HDG - 1.8 cents - [17]
  • Lowes 2500 1.75", 0.092 gauge - Metabo coil - 2.1 cent - [18]
  • See 15 deg scrails below. There are plastic strip 30° scrails as well.

Scrails

Then make them coiled and plastic strip. Ideally, a coil version could be used in a coil siding gun for trim attachment, and a plastic strip could be used. Future work: scrail, metal connector type, to 2.5" for trim, trim angle, and metal connnectors.

  • Removable like a screw, but is shot in. Fasco [19].
  • See 2.5" for use with the Metal Connector gun
  • Check.png1.75" .113 shank 15 degree star drive. Coil. 4 cents, exterior/interior. [20]. If this were to work in a cordless coil siding nailer, that would be ideal. If not, that should be designed.
  • Check.png9 cents - 33 degree bar -.113 in - exterior grade 2.5” [21]
  • 6 cents for interior grade subfloor scrails 2-1/4" - 33 degree bar - [22]
