Belt Fed Posted December 22, 2019 Report Posted December 22, 2019 I helped work on a house years ago that was built with hardwood studs. all the frame was hardwood and old hardwood at that. I don't know how old the place was but it was old. we couldn't drive a nail in that stuff for nothing. 16 penny nails would bend way before they sank to the head, even if you hit them straight on.
