no, never got that nailer thing.
cutting the foam is not my problem. it was building that stupid frame with all the short wood pieces and all those stupid spaces. i understand the need for a flat surface now for sure. we did not have a flat surface. hubby did help me, he said don't worry about anything, while he is not a master carpenter, he is a rough carpenter, and says this will work.
i think i have only used a drill for screwing 1 other time a few years ago. so that was a learning curve there and again a pita. having to keep swapping out the pre-drill bit with the real screw bit, ick. hubby wished he had recorded me though, he said it was funny watching me. the first time i tried it after he showed me was the best. i was determinded to get that darn screw in. hubby kept asking if i wanted him to do it, he kept saying he'll show me one more time. but i kept refusing. i kept trying to get that darn screw in, but nothing i did was going to make it work. so finally hubby did take over. turns out the drill was on reverse!
i ended up breaking off a pre-drill hole bit intot he wood, hubby took that one like a real man.
now the sad part is that we are building this stupid sandwich floor in 2 sections, since nothing comes in the sizes we need. so i am seriously thinking about dumping this idea. you know i could be done with this if i just used wood for the floor. so this darn sandwhich better be saving me weight.
and steve, were your ears burning this morning as i had a few choice words i said here about your 3 hour floor!
i think i have been at this for 3 days! and its only 1 section.
