| Most of us have 10...I know.
I framed out my basement walls with PT bottom plates, but I missed the warnings about using galvanized nails. It's too late to re-nail from the bottom (already stood up and attached). How many toenails should I do? Can I get away with one on each side? Trying to save my arm, but don't want to compromise too much. Thanks for input

| There should be two toenails on either side. But if the wall's already in and you can't toenail from the wall side, just nail on the long sides--the sides at right angles to the wall. |
