New Toy
Monday, February 26th, 2007After a little bit of begging and a short lecture, I bought myself a new toy today. It’s a Bostitch nail gun. Well, actually it is 3 guns and a compressor.
It is bad to the bone. If you have ever taken the moulding off the frame of a door, it is stapled on with the same type of staples that the staple gun shoots. The brad gun is for building small projects like picture frames and attaching light moulding on furniture. The finish nailer is for attaching base boards and crown moulding and building furniture. Plus the compressor, although fairly light duty, will be able to handle a few other tasks around the house like inflating tires and basketballs and such.
I’m looking forward to framing in that mirror I hung yesterday so that I can test out the brad nailer. And now that I’ve got the stain right for the moulding, that should go up in a snap.
Oh gosh, I love a good toy. Especially one that makes life easier
