Am putting up some self made molding, with the molding having a 1/4" rabbit, rouhly 3/8" wide, that needs to be fastened to a previous layer of 1/4" plywood. The molding is made of 1"x13/4" ash and aspen,prefinsihed.
How far from the edge do I have to shoot the nail (18 gauge, 2") before I have to worry about it blowing out the side? The grain is farly neutral, so I would like to shoot through the rabbit, and will be using construction glue to attach the "unrabbited" balance of the molding. Hope this is making sense.
The ohter option is a 23 gauge pin nailer, but I would have to buy one. Thoughts?
