Thinset under the Hardie, like instructed, and nails are finemadrina said:I am a tool snob, that is for sure. And it wasn't the question that made me think he was a diyer. It was the fact that he A-didn't have a nailer, B-was going to by it from Harbor Freight, and 3-wasnt familiar w the Bostitch Brand. I wouldn't nail a hardy sub floor either. But then again I like to be able to walk down the hall without squeeking every step. Just do it right the first time, buy tools that last, that's kinda the contractors unspoken rule of thumb is it not.
It is more work but it's manufacturer recommended no matter screws or nailsmadrina said:Ok but that sounds like more work to me. To each his own.
