Do not use a nailgun on Shera . Any fibrecement does not like to be knocked on in any form or shape . The thing you should look at are self drilling screws . If you are using the 0.8 panels , i would suggest something like this type , or a size bigger ( 25mm-35mm i suggest )

screwed on the U shaped thin steel profiles  ( they are slightly ribbed , very thin available in all hardware stores ). They are cheap also . The Shera will be the most expensive part . Be sure to have a helping hand , since shera is very brittle and will break very easy .

I heard , and this im not sure off , but i can imagine it to be true , is to avoid problems with breaking/cracking panels later on , you pre-drill the hole in the Shera . Maybe somebody knows more about that , but anyway it is a pretty easy job .

 

Thanks for the advice, my original thought was to pre drill the wood and maybe get a smaller pieces as it is heavy stuff, useless for fencing, snaps off too easy but ok for roofing etc

want to cover roof over as the insulation is peeling away. It's about 3x5 meters and was quoted 10k for labour so thought I'd do it myself. What type and gauge nail gun could be used into metal bars, what about the nail material? Watched them do it at the back of the house and it looked easy and quick but never used a nail gun, few hundred baht on Lazada. I was thinking of panels 0.8x 120x 240

What do 500 executives left from 750 at TG do all day?

You can only spend it in participating outlets, no big shops seem to be part of it, strangely a local garden center is so we spent some in there

No plot, slow, wooden acting, but marvelous scenery. They should have not bothered with the story line and just showed Egypt.

Can somebody translate this double speak into English?

The funniest show ever to come out of NZ, 7 periods with Mr Gormsby, all 14 on YT. Soft, lefty hopeless teachers v politically incorrect Gormsby, could not be made to day as it would 'offend' too many, including Maori, those teachers are depicted as only getting their jobs due to ethnicity, surely not!

Ask a few Thais if they know what the speed limits are on various roads, or what the road signs mean. Mrs says she has not got time to read the road signs!

Blood, meat, fish, all disgusting

Why not forget them and buy some more? they are all the same anyway

Daisy Dream Sukhumvit soi 33 down an alley just past the Bless hotel will sort you out

Why would they come here, sex tourists excepted? Far better, safer and culturally enriched in Europe, Italy, Spain Greece, all more attractive destinations than Thailand.

I'm sure Lord Buddha did not have this sort of nonsense in mind!

The would be world class resort in the news again, for all the wrong reasons as usual, strictly for the low life's, IMO.

Most Thai women these days are glued to the Korean ones, same stuff less screeching , slapping and hair pulling

If he didn't have the money and he knew he didn't have it, I am surprised he didn't get an agent to do it for him.

Immigration have their rules, which you have to respect at the end of the day, whether you agree with them or not.

If there weren't a visa amnesty he wouldn't be being offered any new visa at all.

How can you respect rules which allow them to turn a blind eye if they are offered enough to do so?

The number of vaccines available now is not going to help tourism at all. Siambiosience will not start producing them until June, so obviously not a priority for some reason

Sadly seems common, Mrs best mates husband in a Surin primary school got 20 years for it. Swore blind he was innocent ????
