Review on BOSTITCH MIIIFN 2 Inch Pneumatic Flooring by David Golden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Reliable Installation - Great Value

I recently purchased this nailer for installing 3/4" Brazilian Koa to 3/4" OSB. The first thing I noticed is that the nailer includes a nailer leg called a "factory floor adapter". This piece is not shown in the photos but is a very handy addition as it allows you to move from strip to strip (there are small rollers on the bottom of the foot) and slide the strip into position by clicking on the Hit the support piece, not the strips themselves. The instructions are complete but a little obscure. Once you know what they want from you, their intentions will become clear. For example, the leg can be installed in two positions - of course, at first I had the opposite. Annoyingly, the nailer also works in this orientation. just not very good. The handle should be longer to allow for a more upright working position. A longer handle could easily be made as it connects to the nailer's body with a very simple L-bolt (NOT a U-bolt). Note that you will need a 3/8" x 1/4" fitting (nipple diameter) to connect to the air supply, not the more common 1/4" thread.
