[@naturalremediescheshire]

This is the best review for this product on KZbin - Simle, clear and concise. Thank you for uploading a brilliant video

[@madebylewis3024]

Thanks.

*Used this nail gun for framing my basement and it worked great **MyBest.Tools** Two downsides are weight and its not a 30 degree. For the cost it was perfect for completing my project. Worth every dime.*

[@amwartwork]

the unboxing of the box itself deserves a medal sir!!!! refreshing way to unbox something .

[@madebylewis3024]

Thank you. Appreciate it.

[@adassa1132]

Brilliant videos with examples, very helpful thank you. I have this staple/nail gun also, not used it yet, but will be to fix the slats on the garden fence.

[@leonperry123]

Mine does the job. Also my power knob doesn't make much difference either. But I've just learnt it takes staples. Thx

[@madebylewis3024]

Staples were great for building my chicken coop and fixing the chicken wire.

[@happyyorkshireman9250]

Great review, look forward to more. Cheers

[@madebylewis3024]

Thanks. Got a few more new tools so will post the reviews soon

[@raminybhatti5740]

The vibration takes some getting use to, especially if you've never used something like this previously, but I really like it. I think it'll come in useful when reattaching skirting after putting a new floor down.

[@madebylewis3024]

Let us know how it goes with the skirting.

[@raminybhatti5740]

@@madebylewis3024 Will do, mate. 👍

[@2012turok]

Pick my titan nail gun up tomoz,,,,,Nice vid thanks.

[@madebylewis3024]

No worries. Hope it worked well for you.

[@Nine-Signs]

Thank you, for the price I was worried it would have trouble with more than balsa wood but it seems decent enough.

[@madebylewis3024]

Oh for bulsa it is more than enough.

[@raynoble5186]

Great video Just bought one today £44:99 I wonder why it say 25mm max nails on the box and instructions but on the gun it says up to 32mm I really hoping it takes 32mm as just sent for some on eBay as not many diy jobs you could do with 25mm nails hope it works with the 32mm nails just wondering have you tried 32mm nails

[@marbah1889]

Would the 25mm nails that come with the machine be good for nailing feather board fencing to the arris rails? Much appreciated for sharing this.

[@madebylewis3024]

Depending on the thickness of the feather boards then maybe. I would say go for a bigger unit like a first fix nail gun but they are expensive.

[@johnmorrow7080]

No it doesn't 32mm jammed first time I tried them , I need to modify the gun , just need to file/grind a bigger nail slot in it , got the staple gut as well good gear well worth the money .

[@madebylewis3024]

Only certain 32mm nails work. Not all as the majority catch but as you say, a bit of modifying and it’s good to go.

[@jamescairney.]

Just purchased mine today.

[@madebylewis3024]

Good choice. What do you think of it?

[@jamescairney.]

@@madebylewis3024 it's canny, I bought for a project that may not be coming off but I'll be making use of it. Might knock up a wee shiplap storage shed for the wee man's toys just so I make use of the 1000s of brad nails I've got.

[@marcusrowe2528]

Hugely helpful - thank you

[@madebylewis3024]

You’re welcome.

[@Bijusri]

Well explained and I woul😊buy it now

[@SJDCleverdon]

Hey, you mentioned that the gun can take 32mm nails. Do you know if it would be okay taking 30mm staples?

[@madebylewis3024]

No 30mm staples will not fit. There is just a slot for the larger nails, not the staples.

[@bekirnak4029]

What kind of application can I make staples to make carpets?

[@daggy7893]

hi did you try 32mm staples? (i know maybe 32mm nails can fit) but not sure about staples. ta

[@madebylewis3024]

I haven’t tried 32mm staples and I’m not sure they would fit as the cartridge looks to fine out at 32mm not leaving a lot of space for a staple.

[@GreggCastree]

where do you get and what type of nails do you use? Thinking the 32mm?

[@madebylewis3024]

You can get this from ScrewFix. I use the dewalt 25mm nails at the moment for general pinning but the dewalt 32mm has been highly recommended by others.

[@GreggCastree]

Made by Lewis cheers.....I purchased the DeWalt 32mm with the gun from Screwfix, but they stick in the mechanism! The 25mm nails that came with it work fine.

[@t-rex4211]

@@GreggCastree This is an 18 gauge nailer and the dewalt is 16 gauge. Could be why it’s jamming

[@faizahslife5325]

Can I fit mesh to wood with the staple mode?

[@madebylewis3024]

Yes. This would be perfect for it with the staples it provides.

[@frankieflash]

Will this pin thin wood panels to plastered walls?

[@madebylewis3024]

I think it would but I haven’t tried. Would depend on wood thickness and nail length.

[@hannahwoolmer7439]

Can you use it at an angle (for nails)?

[@madebylewis3024]

You can but you just need to ensure that the safety tip is pressed in. It’s not as sophisticated as top brands but you can manage it.

[@stargamesalpha4665]

Great video. Can you use this for nailing timber to brick/concrete? Thanks

[@madebylewis3024]

No I wouldn’t recommend it for that. This is a second six nailer which is for pinning and fixing. You would be best of using a first fix nail gun.

[@georgegavin7369]

Could you use this to fit wood flooring ?

[@madebylewis3024]

Depending on the thickness, this would be ideal.

[@jayess9677]

In your opinion would this be powerful enough to get through 25mm wood (ash) slat plus 5mm mdf back panel? Planning to do a vertical slat wall. Thinking to get the 18ga 32mm model from Screwfix. Thanks man

[@harveycooperfishing8500]

What's it like on mdf mate

[@madebylewis3024]

Yeah good. Can split the wood if not careful though.

[@krakatoa16]

Is this still going strong?

[@madebylewis3024]

Yep still going well. Actually used it today to fix some timber corner strips to a cupboard I’m building. Perfectly strong enough for that.

[@krakatoa16]

@@madebylewis3024 thanks. Going to buy one tomorrow

[@AC-lj9zu]

Everytime i press the trigger nothing happens lol any idea why it dont work when triggerd?

[@madebylewis3024]

Are you ensuring the safety pin is fully depressed?

[@PozaDomem]

How fast can you shoot it per minute?

[@madebylewis3024]

Never really tried it for speed. Not normally something you measure for a Pinner

[@PozaDomem]

@@madebylewis3024 Some time ago I took a risk and fired with great frequency. It did not jam or overheat. The manufacturer, of course, does not recommend such practices.

[@yinyoung7109]

will this nail into a brick wall wood to brick

[@madebylewis3024]

I haven’t tried but I doubt it. I think it would blow the brick. Please let us know if you try it.

[@onlythetruthfull]

are you serious it is a Brad nailer stapler for wood. Not brick.

[@BernhardGO]

Is one handed use possible?

[@madebylewis3024]

It is but in some harder woods, the extra pressure is required.

[@BernhardGO]

@@madebylewis3024 ok great because I will use it in the shop for small projects like draws, Tool holders etc. Can you recommend it for this?

[@madebylewis3024]

@@BernhardGO yeah absolutely. I created all my tool holders with this and they are still standing. Use wood glue for the main strength and then the nail gun to hold the wood in place whilst the glue sets.

[@BernhardGO]

@@madebylewis3024 perfect. Thanks for your quick response

[@oididdidi]

Just got one. Not impressed. What's the point if you have to tap in the nail to get the head flush afterwards or am I missing the point. Bought it to use on flooring beads. Head proud. Crap really

[@madebylewis3024]

Ensure you apply enough pressure so that it gets the nail in enough. You probably have to apply more pressure than higher brands but for the price you can’t go wrong.

[@davidcole5803]

Suggest you go and pay £300 and it will do the job. For £40 I am happy, gift horses and all that.

[@jackchadwick4350]

Good review, albeit a rubbish bit of kit

[@madebylewis3024]

Depends what it’s required for. A professional - no, quick little diy projects - yes.

[@stevepowell4946]

Working near a socket not a plug !!

[@madebylewis3024]

Haha You’re right.

[@andrewreynolds2647]

take the rubber shroud off the gun it is a nightmare to use as you are suggesting in error. take the bloody rubber shroud off the front of the gun. it is only there for transportaion purposes. Doh. your video is so wrong. you will always get the brads sticking proud of the wood if you use this gun as shown, schoolboy error.

[@madebylewis3024]

Thanks for your reply but the rubber shroud is a non marking tip. It helps when using on finished woods. I would not suggest to remove it.
