I used this nailer to nail down the hardware in the kitchen and next door. Compared to using a drill/hammer/nail to nail the plank, this nail works great: it's much faster and makes far fewer mistakes than my drill/hammer/nail method. So it works faster and works better. Using it to nail a plank will force the plank into close contact with the plank behind; therefore closes every gap. It also makes the result much better than usual. I have no problem using this nailer as long as I remember to do the following: (1) Hold the nailer firmly on the ground, otherwise kickback may cause the nail does not go all the way in. (2) Beat him decisively; Otherwise the nail will not go all the way in. If there is not enough space to score well, I will move the obstacle to make space. If I can't move the obstacle, I have to hold the hammer closer to the weighted end and hit it at high speed to compensate for the lack of leverage. Also note that it doesn't require a lot of air to operate. . I only use a 1/2 HP compressor. and 1 gallon 1 hot dog style to work with this nailer. Of course, sometimes I have to wait for the air compressor to kick in. But honestly, the air compressor waits for me more than I wait for the air compressor because I just don't work fast enough. Sorry if you want to find an excuse to upgrade to a bigger air compressor, this isn't it. The supplied case offers enough space inside. I can pack anything in there including a box of soil nails, a set of soil nails and some other stuff I don't remember now, in addition to the soil nailer itself. to another named brand. Therefore cheap and good - exactly what I like best.
