Had second thoughts on the amount of nails that hold the big garage door header together, so I took my compressor / nailer to the porch last night and more than doubled what I originally put in it. I'll sleep better :-)

I also had to cut an inch off of every stud I had cut for the walls. I was surprised by how long it took to simply move the stack of lumber, mark an inch off the top, cut it off, restack it and sweep up my work area. I'd try to go faster, but I'd likely make more mistakes. And that wouldn't do.
