Hello all,
Been doing some research on nailers. Have read through posts on here but still have a few questions.
Basically, I have a lot of work in the house AND the garden to do.
The garden work will be a fair amount of fencing (featheredge) plus a largish shed which will be clad with shiplap.
The house will involve shelving units and largish wardrobes. There will also be a fair amount of 'finishing' stuff. I tend to use screws in construction but could use nails in the 'first fix' where necessary.
As you can see, I have, in effect, two sorts of jobs - building AND finishing. I have looked at all sorts of nailers (gas, non-gas cordless, air etc.) and I have yet to find one which can do both jobs. They appear to be either finish nailers or first-fix nailers - not both.
(a) Will a finish nailer with a bigger nail capacity be suitable for fencing, cladding and interior work? If so, any suggestions please?
(b) If the answer to (a) is NO then I am thinking it may be worth buying a compressor plus TWO nailers (finish and first-fix) Any suggestions as to compressors/makes of air nailers please?
Thanks very much in anticipation.
