Replace round brackets with square ones.


Is it possible to run the bolt through and put a nut on the other side?

What type of nailgun is the best in a spudding (kinda) point of view? I mean, what is the most powerful kind of nailgun available?

EEEEEEEEEEEEPOOOOOOOOOXYYYYYYYYYYY

fixes everything. Just mix some up and pour over the crack. Try not to spill it through the hole, and just rub it into the crack and wipe of the excess. I'm honestly not 100% sure well that would work but its the first thing I would try :roll:

You can usually tell by how big they are, bigger case means bigger piston and therefore more flow if you'll be using it as a valve.

I had bought the smallest brad nailer I could find and it still had a 25mm or so piston so more than enough flow for a good sized pneumatic.

hmmm
I don't get it... why would anyone buy a nailgun to mod it ? I mean I know it has an inbuilt 3 way valve but it is easier and probably cheaper to use a QEV + 3 way valve instead

It's a ready made semi-automatic piston valve complete with trigger and pistol grip you can get for 15 dollars, I can see the appeal to be honest ;)

Aren't there combustion nailers? I've heard somewhere that nail-guns can shoot nails up to 1400 fps, was it true?
