Hitachi N5008AC2 7/16" Standard Crown Stapler, 16 Gauge

While this gun performs admirably and has excellent ergonomics, it has a few significant flaws. The rail, for starters, is made of plastic. This is simply not a material that will last a long time. Second, the depth adjustment necessitates the use of a wrench to loosen and tighten. When attempting to adjust it while working, this is inconvenient. br>br>While those are my primary concerns, I also have a smoke-free home. The first time I used my new gun, it smelled like this. I haven't noticed the smell since, and I'm hoping it won't become a problem, but it didn't make me feel good about the gun's dependability or construction quality.

This stapler is simply incredible. The one ding I'd give it is that, as others have mentioned, the staple rail is plastic/nylon, which means that if you're the type to throw your tools around, it could break. Aside from that, I've run over 15,000 staples through this machine with no problems. After hitting metal earthquake straps under the siding a couple of times, I've jammed it pretty good. However, due to the tool's design, the jams were relatively easy to clear. Doing my own cedar shake installation on the house has saved me over $15,000. As a result, even a small project can yield a significant return on investment.

My old Senco stapler, which I've had for 35 years, worked like this: "pull the trigger once, get one staple. " This unit works like this: "pull and hold the trigger in, and bounce it along the wall, one staple every time you hit the wall. " They have an attachment that turns the gun into a standard "one pull, one shot" weapon, but it's far too expensive to be practical.

Okay, so far I've only fired a few hundred shots. But, since I'm using the same Staples to remove particleboard underlayment, I figured I'd use them to lay down the new OSB as well. br>br>I have a small pancake compressor, but I'm using it to drive B. Staples at a rate of about 60 per minute for E 2" staples. br>br>I'll update later because there are about 9000 more rounds to fire on this floor.

In the tube and at the tip of the stapler, I always put a drop of pneumatic tool oil. I've used this stapler to sheath floors and the exterior of a large shed that I've built so far. In total, there are likely to be around 10,000 staples. It appears that this item has never been used before. The only thing I've noticed that I don't like about the trigger is how sensitive it is. I occasionally fire two staples in rapid succession, especially when I'm tired. There have been no problems or jams thus far. It does exactly what it says. This Metabo/Hitachi unit has exceeded my expectations!.

This thing is extremely well constructed. It has a solid feel to it and produces reliable results. That's what I did with it. 25" or . With a 315" siding. 565 crown x 1 is a crown that is made up of 565 crowns It's no problem with 25" staples. However, there are a few that hit a tough spot and don't go all the way in. This staple gun performs admirably.

Over the last three decades, we've fenced quite a bit. To make an aviary, I borrowed one of these from a neighbor. We bought one for ourselves after just one day of use because it was so simple.

I used it to build a dog fence that was nice and quick, and then I used it to add wood rails to the same fence. For many nailing jobs where a hammer was previously required, this has become my go-to tool.
