‘Suck it.’- D-Generation X and also this lag #build #builder #construction #carpenter #framing

What happens here

Align a vertical wooden post with a horizontal wooden beam, ensuring the connection point is stable. Use a DeWalt 20V impact driver with a 6Ah battery to drive a long construction screw through both pieces of wood. The screw should penetrate deep enough into both elements to create a secure, stable joint. A spirit level may be used beforehand to ensure vertical and horizontal alignment.

Goal: Attach structural wooden elements firmly
