The 3-1/2 amp NiMH batteries deliver remarkable run time per charge, which is a big plus, especially if you need a tool for continuous use. What about power? This Panasonic packs...

Porter-Cable CFFN250N 16 Gauge Finish Nailer 18 Gauge Brad Nailer Compressor Combo Kit

Saturday, January 6th 2007

To be honest, we looked twice at the price, certain the folks at Amazon had made a mistake. But sure enough, they’re right–and so is the price. Porter-Cable makes some of the best pneumatic tools in the industry, and these nailers are two prime examples. The 16-gauge is sturdy, compact, lighter and quieter than you’d expect with a grip even smaller hands can get around. Great balance, easy depth-of-drive adjustment, and a pleasure...

DeWalt DC618KA 1-1/2-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 18-Volt Ni-Cad Cordless 16-Gauge Angled Finish Nailer Kit

Wednesday, January 3rd 2007

No compressor. No hoses. No kidding. And no sacrifices in speed or power, either. There’s absolutely no comparison between this performer and the fuel-cell powered competition, which we thought was a great innovation. But there’s no costly fuel cell to replace on this tool—-just pop on a recharged XRP battery and get back on the job. The only difference you’ll feel between this and a traditional pneumatic is that you’re... 

Porter Cable PN650 Palm Nailer Kit

Wednesday, January 3rd 2007

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...

Because it’s so compact, it fits nicely into tight spaces, and its super light weight means no fatigue, even in the awkward positions upholsters can find themselves. We didn’t experience any misfires or jams, but if they happen, just release the magazine and the driver blade guide retracts....
