+2 on the deck screws.  Safer than a hammer/nails and you can change your mind or fix a miscalculation.  I just built my coop this weekend and I used 2x4 center on 16" for insulation purposes.  OSB for the sides.  Treated ply for the base.  I will be painting my OSB to protect it smile

I have a post with some picts here if you want to see the progress.

Just the average boy next door.  I enjoy:  SCUBA, motorcycles, drag racing, car shows, dog shows, dog agility, dog sledding, camping (tent), hiking, target shooting (gun/crossbow), landscaping/gardening, and finally...going to start raising chickens.

Thanks for all the posters giving a building newbie a hand!  Got the roof and tar paper up.  Just need to shingle it and start on the walls and hardware cloth!
