Screws or Nails..

I use both. I use the nail gun to tack it together & then go back with deck screws to tighten everything up.

Screws! My husband is never a fan of nails. He says screws hold the wood together much better and they are easy to remove.

Screws, nails and staples. I use the fastener that suits the use.

Same here, used everything but bailing wire.

We built an 8'x16' coop/storage room this spring and used the star-head screws for the framing, flooring, etc. This was our first construction project and many times were grateful we didn't have to pry out nails to change things. We LOVE our Dewalt tools! We used a nail gun to put up the siding because it worked better than screws in the composite material. We used staples for all the wire and hardware cloth. That building will be there a long time--very sturdy.

Screws!
I know I will put something together wrong. It always happens.

That and when you have to expand the coop you can make changes much easier.

Everything under the sun as I was trying to use up left over materials from other projects, but my absolute preference is screws with the star head!! So easy to use, almost impossible to strip, back out easily, can correct mistakes, the list goes on. Plus, I'm in the 40+ crowd and my "coop" is a 10x12 shed-style structure, I found swinging that hammer made me pretty sore after I while, I was so happy when I ran out of nails!

Don't forget the chewing gum.
