    I bought this nail gun as we were planning to renew all the fencing in our back garden. As this involved 19 double slatted fence panels, 10 of which needed to be cut down in size, we knew there would be a need for a great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxHQsUrwNr5GQrnx9V4xDdUr56qxwuiBHt deal of re-stapling the wooden slats to the wooden framework. Each alteration required the re-stapling of 62 wooden slats with double staples. Prior to starting the work we ordered sufficient additional staples as per the instructions with the gun.The gun performed fantastically throughout the entire project with no jams of misfires. The adjustable power was excellent allowing the staples to be fired into the 8mm slats to the correct depth. For the price paid this was a bargain and it proved itself to be so reliable and versatile making an arduous task much quicker and professional. I cannot recommend this product highly enough and it will be used on many other projects in the future.

Your operators manual will go over so many helpful safety tips, but I would love to help you get comfortable with it. The most important thing is unplugging it as you poke around and look at how it works. Get familiar with handles, switches, knobs, anything. The more you know, the less scary it will be for you. Start small and just make a few straight cuts until that fear is identified! :) I am here for any advice or help you need.

Spent 2 days off work researching the best deal for my needs with the packages ryobi has at home depot. Boy, talk about alot of good deals and great kits. Problem is bags zipper is missing a tooth. The zipper bent in half when I tried to open it. Then the crate set a 3 piece item was only one. 3 teir stack unit is missing the medium and standards box. Now ryobi wants me to drive 20 minutes each way to return the item so they can reorder the same item and drive back again to make sure its right. So my "deal" s now paying full price. Makes me want to return it and never try ryobi. Ive never owned a tool and this is a horrible experience. A day off starting projects turned into a ryobi nightmare.
