The highlight of the day, as always, was the Fastest Nailer in the East contest. This competition measures contractors’ ability to nail down 18 square feet of Aacer 2-1/4″ red oak select floors in the least amount of time while adhering as closely as possible to NWFA standards. Mistakes add penalties to the competitors’ times.

The stakes for the competition are high, with the prize for first place being $500 in cash and a ton of bragging rights.
