Dont' use with people the back side of what you are nailing.

 

Reminded me of Happy Gilmore, where he shoots Jaws in the head with the nail gun.

I've used a Paslode nailgun for several years, great bit of kit, saves hours in the long run! But I agree that you should always use genuine nails and gas though.

 

However what I really could do with is a Paslode style gun that will fire large U staples (for wire fencing), but no-one seems to make such a thing. Anyone know of one?

Just brought one of those. So far so good. We used to have a similar one but the staples just pulled out. This one fires barbed staples, saves a lot of time and my elbow!

Pricey, but worth it.

I can't see how it can work, how can it fire it with just the right amount of pressure so the staple doesn't bite the wire whilst still being in far enough to hold and prevent the wire rattling in the wind.

For example some wood is denser than others so how can it guage the power required?

You have play with the air pressure a bit. Should be around 100psi I think, bit the main depth gauge is on the tip, few minutes playing around and it fires them perfectly, unless you hit a knot!

Most posts must be similar density as that's the way it seems to work.

Ah, I see, that makes sense, there's a depth guage to control how far the staples go? Its certainly a tool I would be interested in investing but I wouldn't want it to be driving the staple home on stock netting.

For now I will keep on with hammer and pouch until I can try one/or the price drops a bit!
