Hi Guys I'm building a San Javier double I'm just about at the stage where I ca attach my decks to the shear clamps the instructions call for 3/4" ring nails every 4" does anyone have any alternative ways to attach decks ?I was thinking of stapling and then pulling the staples after the bronze ring nails might be ok but I'm not sure .
Thanks again for your advice
