10' Ceilings
3/4" Cypress T&G with 5 1/4" net coverage
Lengths up to 16'
No finish flooring to protect, just subfloor
Joists 16" OC
My wife and I will be doing this, we're newbies but doing pretty well on our remodel
560 sq ft now with 280 in phase two
1. Should I buy/use the longest length of wood possible ( the 16 footers)?
2. I have a air powered nail gun shooting 2" finish nails or I have a Passload gas fired framing gun. I've used the finish gun for T&G walls with good success. I've never attempted the Passload. What to use for the Ceilings?
3. I'm 58 y/o. Any advice on ladders/scaffolding. I have one step ladder and one of those folding metal ladders that you can configure into a step or straight.
Many Thanks!
