    OSB Sheathing - How many screws?

    I'm almost done hanging the OSB sheathing on the stud wall in the shop but I'm starting to have second thoughts about the number of screws I'm using. I didn't want to go nuts, waste a bunch of screws, and have a screw head in the way every time I wanted to hang something. Then again, I don't...

    Drywall or OSB?

    I just assumed that I would put up drywall in my shop when I finish the insulation, but I see from the gallerys here that some of you use OSB. What are the pros and cons? I would appreciate your comments. Ken
