Are you sure 2" will fit in our 18ga nail gun? Pretty sure it is limited to 1.25 or 1.5", but I have been wrong many times before.

Let’s check tonight.
Don’t want to buy anything that doesn’t fit.

You are correct. The 18g nailer only takes 5/8 to 1-1/4 brads.
I’ll build an order for 5/8, 3/4, and remove the 1-1/2, 1-3/4, 2.
Probably bring the total to under $300.
I also won an auction item of 3-1/2" framing nails that should fit the new nailer.
I’ve updated to list to match the guns capabilities.
Gauge | | |
18 | 15 | Framing | |
5/8 | 5.53 | | | |
3/4 | 19.26 | | | |
1 | 14.3 | | | |
1 1/4 | 18.49 | 29.99 | | |
1 1/2 | | 19.99 | | |
Length | 1 3/4 | | 30.47 | | |
2 | | 31.99 | | |
2 1/4 | | 29.99 | | |
2 1/2 | | 34.21 | 27.99 | |
3 | | | 19.99 | |
3 1/4 | | | 29.98 | |
57.58 | 176.64 | 77.96 | 312.18 |
I’ll keep the vote for $350 so we don’t have to wait. Should come out under.
Of course the nails I got on the auction don’t fit the nailgun (diameter too large). Free to a good home.
Thanks,
Brad
Most of the nails have arrived.
I placed them by the nail guns.
I think it would be cool to make a storage box for each gun with cubbies for the nails. I’ll sketch something up.
