Having a flat level floor in place made the walls much easier to build.
An 18v cordless drill can drive a screw through channel and non-structural 26 gauge studs. It cannot drive them through structural studs, so each hole had to be pre-drilled with a 1/8" bit. I went through about thirty bits between the framing and sheathing, and it took more than twice as long as it would have with a proper screw gun.
Lesson learned: Next time buy or rent a proper screw gun.
