Hi, Anybody have experience with Harbor Freight air framing nailers, either the round head or clipped head? What would be the advantage of one over the other (I'm not sure I know exactly what the clipped head looks like). I wouldn't be using the nailer on a day-in/day-out basis but for fix-up, remolding, etc. projects on my old bungalow. I'd appreciate any advise. Thanks, Jer
Some municipalities don't allow clipped head nails. If you're going to be doing work that requires a permit, check with the building department to find out if they allow clipped head nails before you make your decision.
Not personal - but there were two guys in line to return them when I popped in the local HF outlet. I have *no* idea whether that's two returns out'a
200; whether they wanted their money back; whether they were contractors, etc.Just thinking you might want to consider how you'd return it, if necessary.
I recently bought a reconditioned Porter Cable nailer for $189 from Amazon. It has been perfect so far and I've used the heck out of it. Since clipped heads are more common here, that's what I bought. We don't have the seismic or hurricane troubles that other parts of the country experience.
