Is this enough nails?
« on: May 24, 2023, 12:52:26 pm »
Prior owner walled off a shop in the barn, but it is not mouse (or snake) proof, so I decided to fix that.  I am filling in gaps around the walls of the shop and open barn.  Among things I don't like is pegboard, which covers most of the walls and is set out by furring strips (nominally 1" x 2").  Mice do get behind it.  Here is a picture of a couple of the furring strips after removing the peg board.  (I am still a novice with my new camera -- sorry for the quality.)  Every dark dot is a pneumatic driven brad nail.  He used glue coated nails, and needless to say, they are a royal pain to remove.

This is just a light post and is not intended to be a serious discussion, but my guess is that he took out his frustrations with a much younger, recent wife with his nail gun.  (They divorced after about 3 years, which led to my eventual purchase of the house.)

If you're trading-in for the newer model spouse, isn't the point to have better ways of taking out frustrations?  >:D
