Using an air nailer is easy for the blind user. But you will need sighted help for setting up the pressure and a inline regulator. Leaving your air compressor set at maximum pressure. With sighted help you will need to set up the inline regulator. You will need a way to label the online regulator. It would be handy to have an inline regulator for each air tool, solving the problem of changing the pressure for each tool. Some nailers need to be adjusted according the hardness of the wood and the depth of the nail. After getting the inline regulator set to the middle range, use trial and error on scralp until desired results.

When I took construction in high school we used air nailers. I was just wondering if anyone who was totaly blind has used one with out sighted assistance? If you have how do you know how much pressure the compressor is at? I'd like to get one but am not sure how to tell what the pressure gage is at. If anyone can help that would be great.
