Dear Barry:
You will find many uses for your new nailer, although there may be months
in between uses. The jobs will go so quickly, that you will feel that you have
not used it much, but pick up the hammer and do just a small part and you will
quickly recall why you love your new toy.
I have the electric model from DeWalt, which uses an eighteen volt battery
and my wife enjoys using it. It does not make as much noise as the pass-load,
but both are good products. We normally borrow a pass-load when it comes time
to frame, as 2.5 inch nails will not work when framing.
When installing base-board or other trim, they are really handy and
efficient.
Yours Truly,
Clifford Wilson

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] A Paslode Nailer
Howdy Blind Handy People,
I have a new, as in just purchased about an hour ago, Paslode 18-gauge
cordless brad nailer! Hah! My scores on the man-scale have just risen
another whole standard deviation above the mean!
It works off a battery and a gas charge. The battery will last approx 4000
hits, and the gas canister will go for approx 1200 hits. It will handle
brads from five-eights inch long, on up to two inches.
I bought it because I have a little project that was going to be a pain if I
had to manually nail some finishing brads to hold a couple of 6-foot lengths
of one-by 3 clear finishing pine in place.Now, the only problem I have is
not having enough finishing work around the house to use it more.
The only downside to this little 4.9 pound beauty of a tool is that my wife
states she won't stay in the same room with me while I'm shooting. Ah well,
life is full of little sacrifices.
