Anyone using a Dewalt cordless nailer ?

Oct 24, 2005 7 Replies

Hi folks I have a job coming up which involves cladding a bathroom in t&g. I am thinking that this might be the time to invest in a Dewalt cordless nailer or a corded nailer. I may also use one for the occasional t&g floor job.I don't want to get a pnumatic gun as all my work is on site in peoples homes. Anyone use one on a regular basis?



Surely there must be somone out there who is using one, or perhaps they just have not seen the posting because of all this spam infiltrating our site.

I use a variety of pneumatic nailers from a tiny pin nailer to a chunky framing nailer.

You don't need to have a substantial compressor. A pancake type will do for most things and is very portable.

Did I spell it wrong? Or is it not the correct terminology for such an activity? I am dislexic after all.

I had one and sold it they are rubbish I bought a small compressor, a 2

gauge nailer and a 15 gauge nailer.

16 gauge nails are unsuitable for everything, too big for cladding an too small for 2nd fix work.

Senco make a good cordless 18 gauge gun, which would be okay

Many thanks, just to confirm,was it the Dewalt you found to be Rubbish? Also what type of compressor did you buy.
