I only got one response for the discussion on the nailgun ammo so I just did a sweep of what was available for the three sizes we have:

Gauge
18 gauge 15 gauge Framing
Length 1 7.47
1 1/4 19.18 29.99
1 1/2 12.99 19.99
1 3/4 22.02 33.56
2 24.9 31.99
2 1/4 29.99
2 1/2 40.02 27.99
3 19.99
Totals 86.56 185.54 47.98 320.08

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.

#3

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

#4

I won’t be there tonight, family emergency is messing with schedule this week (no warden hours thursday for me either).

#5

No worries, hope everyone is ok.

I’ll check it out.

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. :grinning:

I’ve updated to list to match the guns capabilities.

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.
