Porter Cable PN650 Palm Nailer Kit

Porter-Cable’s palm nailer is growing in popularity among both woodworkers and contractors alike–and for good reason. At first glance, it doesn’t look like much of a powerhouse, but connect it to even a small compressor and you’re driving 6-inch nails no problem. Another great feature: you’re not restricted to one type of nail. Fatigue is minimal, thanks to its light weight (just 2-1/2 pounds!) and ergonomic design. The kit comes with a “no-mar” finish tip, a magnetic tip for driving 3d to 16d common nails, a standard tip for common nails up to 70d, and a steel hammer kit for moldings, dowels, and automotive body work. In hand, it’s super light, compact, and the leather glove makes it a pleasure to use, fitting into nearly any space your hand can get into. Of course, you do have to feed one nail at a time, but this tough little gun is going to drive nails in areas other nail guns would never fit.–Kris Jensen-Van Heste
