More construction help - Jerm, et al...

I now have the official Jerminator approved uni-strut with all thread hangers ready to go.

Now, in building the actual soffit, I'm planning on using 2x4s and 3 inch "Grabbers" (wood screws). Should I use any kind of gussets since there will be cabinets attached to the finished product?

    I just noticed this. Yes, you should be just fine with 3" screws as long as they are structural grade.
