I do not think it is the tools, I believe that it is the strong male attatute that she cannot deal with.

My wife hates woodworking stores and hard ware stores, so we do not go often. when I go, I get every thing I need or think I might need. I do not want to spend your money, but I would tuy the nailer and the nails.

If I add up all the money I've spent on renting one, I have purchased one for the tool rental company out right. In my mind, I'm thinking I won't use one enough to purchase one; but, evidently, this isn't the case. I've wasted about $250 so far. On the other hand, I don't think I'll need one for the forseeable future. Unless, I have to replace another roof plumming vent as I did last weekend. Having a nailer sure makes the job go much quicker and easier than a hammer and box of roofing nails. I'm half way tempted to get one the next time I have to do any roof work. What do you all think?
