FHA Approves Smaller Gause Shinsle Nail

No one l-ould have belier,ed that such a fuss could l.:ar.e been raised by such a small matter as a ferv thousandths of an inch on a sl-ringle nail but this subject has, nevertheless, been "hot" irr tlre rlisctrssiorrs and just plain "cussin's" of Southern Caiifornia lurnlter retailers, contractors and shinglers alike for the past couple of mon,ths.

Now all are jubilant again because the FHA office, which had for a time been insisting on the thicker-shanked 13 gauge 3d nail for use in applying 16-inch cedar shingles on roofs and rvalls, has now accepted a nail of. 14 gaage-|L/a inches long-L/a inch head-hot dipped zinc coated, which is a nail in much closer harmony with the nail specifications recommended in the Red Cedar Shingle Bure'au's Certigrade Handbook.

W. I. (lcck) Ivey

Dealers and contractors, and the shinglers who put the cedar shingles on, all had been grouching because they felt the nail FHA was insisting on was heavier than necessary for the job and didn't permit as good a job of application as the thinner nail. These same men of the building industry are now giving high p,raise to W. J. (Jack) Ivey, the Red Cedar Shingle Bureau's field represehtative in California for some diplomatic work with all concerned in getting the nail size shaved down a few thousandths of an inch in diameter, a task which they agree was much more of a feat than it sounds.

Jack is an authority on shingle construction and has established a friendship wirth hundreds of California dealers. Although young in years and appearance, he is a veteran of more than a dozen years' experience in the Red Cedar shingle business that ranges from production and application to trade promotion. IIe has sholvn the Bureau's tlo sound-motion pictures to thousands of California ci'tizens, mainly dealers, contractors, carpenters and shinglers, architects, FHA officials, and others directly interested in the building industry.
