Re: [DIY] Re: OSB

 

I've read that the smooth side is the best side for painting purposes.  I'm going to have the smooth sides facing outwards so they can be painted or finished.  The insides will be kept natural except for the floor which will be tiled with cheap tile or other such flooring.
 
I've never actually used the stuff for roofing.  The OSB I get has printing on one side and lines on the other.  I just read the other day that the lines are used as a guide for nailing. 
 
Funny you should mention to google OSB.  I watched a video of them making it right before seeing your post.  I knew what it was and have read in the past how the sheets are formed.  However, I've never actually "seen" the process.  Very interesting stuff.

I just wish they would put the printing on the rough side.
 OSB with a little stain and varnish makes a pretty nice wall covering if you are not too picky and it is for shop offices and the such.
