You are talking about 2 different types of nailers here. A coil nailer accepts
nails from a roll that is rolled or coiled up. There would be an opening on
the side of the nailer itself that opens and the nails drop over a stem and the
cover is snapped shut.
A palm nailer can only drive 1
Well you know I bet it would be a bit easier to run a plane toward
then away as well. Spirits or no spirits, they have something with
this pull idea.
Where might you find such a palm nailer. I don't suppose it is allong
the lines of a nail gun that relies on an air compressor or a cartredge?

No but I have used a makeshift one that was louder. I pulled the buzzer unit
from under the dash of a 80's Chevy truck, hooked up two wires to it and used
it as a continuity tester when I couldn't find mine.

Japanese pull plains exist and are able to allow for controlled, fine shavings.

Hmmm, interesting thread about cutting saws! I've used saws and I was
always taught to push and then pull. But.I play Beep Ball and when I
practice my swing, I'm supposed to pull back so I can get a good forceful
swing when I swing to hit the ball. I wonder if I might have more control

Hmm, pulling the spirits toward you. And I would have thought it was
because someone got annoyed when they bent a saw trying to power through
the push, and realized that putting the blade in tension made more sense
than putting it in compression. *GRIN*

Power is not the key for cutting straight and accurately. Having a properly
sharpened tool is the key. Bob is absolutely correct
about these saws. The cuts are smooth and quickly done. I don't own a
Japanese plane; but, have used one. I was very impressed
with the results I achieved.

Assuming you have a unit similar to mine, which is the WRT54G and I'm
fairly sure even newer units are similar, it is the jack closest to
the power connector port.

Betsy, you are correct and I sincerely apologize for steering him
wrong. I confused my WRT54G, which is stashed in a drawer with my
current Apple router. I pulled the WRT54G out and recalled that the
reset switch is closest to the WAN port and the power connector is on
the extreme left.
It's that logic learned from being a single mom who is blind for
many years. Now that my kids are grown and the husband is sighted, it
still pays to do the logic.

Looking at the back.
The wand port is far left with 1, 2, 3, and 4 output to computer or
device. Then comes the multi/dmz port on some for most its just multi output.

I have a friend who is a contractor. He is doing a little work for me.
Anyway he was jut telling me about a new pneumatic joist nail gun that he
purchased. He does not know how it works but the only time it will shoot is
when it is correctly aligned with the nail hole in the metal joist
I have this same joist hangar nailer, and really love it. The tips of the
nails are exposed, so it is easy for a blink to put the tip of the nail
into the hole on the hangar and bammo. It is one powerful little sucker.
Very compact as well. The joists on my deck were nominally 12 inches on
I got better results pulling, and didn't care if I was thought a
neandrethal. It just worked better for me to pull the push plane. I am no
cabinetry man, but the results were approved by all regardless if they
knew the worker or not.

A palm nailer is run on compressed air. However, you can get the battery
powered version, not quite as po0werful from Craftsman.

I've built continuity testers from the stuff available from Radio Shack and

I epoxy the buzzer in a kit box that I pre drilled holes in one side to let the

I used to have one of them and it was the one farthest from the power plug.
Easiest way to figure it out is to connect the computer to one of the middle
2 spots and then plug the modem into the farthest away and try it.

I've seen them advertised before but they are a single use nailer. As in
they only work for just hangers and rafter plates. I don't use either so it
wouldn't be much use. But the safety part is neat if someone else uses the
hardware.

We're always getting requests from mechanics who lost the

To clarify...My makeshift tester when used as a continuity tester had a 12 volt
battery out of an old smoke detector wired inline on one of the wires hooked to
the buzzer. I could also use it as a 12 volt DC tester with the battery

OK then. If it's a coil nailer, here's what you probably have.
When you open the door to set the nails in, there are usually 2 different
tracks. They are for different length nails. If you have longer nails, then
the heads need to go in the closest track to you as you look down at the

I have found the problem, the shop sold me the wrong nails for the

The shop only keep 50 ml nales for that make so I am taking it back
and getting a fraiming gun instead.

regulator on an air compresser? I know it's a dial you turn, but there is a
