Hi all, Has anyone ever used this thing? Whenever I get done with any project requiring use of a hammer, my thumbs always wind up looking more like my big toes than thumbs. For this very reason, I've begun looking at the electric powered nailer that someone wrote about in a previous post. This thing would save me a great deal of money if it worked. Any help greatly appreciated.
