On a roll

[Weatherlawyer]

I've just seen an advert for "no more nails" on a roll.

What would be the point of that?

[Guy King]

The message from "Weatherlawyer" contains these words:

For people who lack the technical skill to operate a cartridge?

[Chris Bacon]

The roll is actually fed into an automatic "no more nails" gun.

The message from Chris Bacon contains these words:

Ah. In that case it's another thing to flog to gullible people who think they'll magically be able to do perfect work if only they had the right gizmo.

[Chris Bacon]

The best one is a Hilti "no more nails" gun. Bam! Bam! Bam! Great blobs of "no more nails" are belt-fed off the roll, and fired at high velocity onto whatever you're glueing something to, at up to 400 shots per minute. It's a great advance!

What's wrong with the good ol' toothpaste tube setup?

Was that the prototype in Bugsy Malone?

[Chris Bacon]

See you at the speakeasy.

[Dave Plowman (News)]

A sort of extra strong double sided tape?

[Weatherlawyer]

There must be a marketable idea in the roll but I'm damned if I know. We'll have to wait and see.

Not neccessarily - it might be a flop. Lots of products are - many deservedly so.

I would love to know the part number for that tool, just to have a play with it the local hilti centre.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Weatherlawyer" saying something like:

That's a novel filling.

Be a bit chewy, I would think.
