What type of nail should be used when installing cedar shakes or shingles?

Stainless steel nails are the best choice. High tensile strength aluminum is acceptable if the edging and gutters are also aluminum. Do not mix metals (copper, galvanized or aluminum) as doing so may cause corrosion.

Galvanized or copper may result in discoloration and streaking. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
