One with a silencer and trigger: amzn.to/2Oq1m52
I cover a lot more than just how to use it. Go to 6:25 to skip to the demo.
There are many options and brands but I don't use it that often so the $25 is just fine for me. If you live in Australia, you need to have this tool registered and a license plus training to use it. I'm curious what other countries regulations are.

This tool is used most often to attach wood to concrete or wood to steel but it can be used with other materials. There are many fasteners of various sizes and shapes. Check out the store display to see more. By the way, if you are curious as to the holding strength, good luck getting these nails out of concrete, it's possible but man it's not easy! These are permanent fasteners. Easier to grind it off than pull it out.

Yes, I know it's a long video, so go to 6:25 if you want to skip to the demo. In the first half, I cover safety, how to choose various loads, the difference in nails etc.
I am not scolding you for doing this put please do not use wd40 as a lubricant spray..it is alcohol based spray and will dry up and cause your tool to seize over time. It is meant to loosen seized tools/bolts and then apply a lubricant with a silicone base
Great vid! What happens if you don't hold that lower piece of wood down the the Ramset or anything?
first youtube to actually tell the audience and be straight up, i like it💯
Are you using a 3" nail?
How to oder..i am from malaysian
One of the best, most informative, easy to follow, DIY videos I’ve seen. This video should double down as a how-to-make-a-DIY video
it's like playing with the snap caps when you were a kid, but doing something more productive as an adult
Thanks. Brings back memories of my dad building a wall on the concrete patio. He blew a chunk of concrete off the corner. Getting prepared to build a pantry in the basement. I appreciate you going through the load colors.
🤣🤣 it sounds dangerous lol
😊
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Now I understand where the word "powder" comes from. I was very confused at how the heck a tool so small drives through concrete. Amazing stuff.
You were very helpful on the way you informed us on how to use this tool plus how you shared the difference in the powder shots, thanks so much 👍🏾
Finally found tutorials that are simple. clear. easy. AND INFORMATIVE.
I have no idea why this has so many dislikes. Great video and appreciate the clarity. Thank you 👍
Good work friend is a very useful tool when building partitions and separating environments Greetings from Chile
I use a rubber mallet it will set it off but won't damage the tool
Already appreciate you using pt for your bottom plate 👍🏽👍🏽
When I was a kid I used to steal those Ramsets .22 cal and put them in a steal pan on top of a fire in hopes to set them off for the noise xD
That was really interesting to watch. I have walked by those things hundreds of times at the hardware store. Now, they are useful to me.
Excellent explanation of tool and parts used. I was able to comprehend how it works with ease. Thanks
Very descriptive, covered everything even prices. Very helpful 👌🏽
It shows the price at the start of the video
contact me
Nice and clear info adam, thanks. I have an old one as well that i used when i did my basement as well. And just wanted a quick refresher as i plan to help a pal out in the next few weeks
Awesome demonstration of the Ramset tool 👌👍
Thanks for the informative video :) I'm putting shelves in my concrete storage room and I'll need this tool. Your walkthrough was clear and answered all of my questions 👍
I watched two other videos on this tool and I appreciated this one the most. Thanks!
Thank you ,,,I was walking down the sidewalk next to a construction site and I stumbled across this tool,,,the site was closed, because it was a Sunday..I googled the part # and up popped your vid.
Good job my friend. I learned pretty awesome today I never knew such a simple tool existed, so I am very happy.
Thank you!
No need to be ashamed for the damaged tool mate, as long as it does it’s job and we know that some old tools are better then new ones :)
When I was a kid my uncle used this he never told me about it, I wasn’t expecting the loud pop and almost shitted my pants 😂
Thank you for your video. I used mine over ten years ago- though my carpenter used it a few years ago. I needed to review how to use it. Your video helped
This is a very good TV show and we love it!
Thank you for sharing this video. I wanted to learn about the Ramset.
I don't recall anymore what caused my father to buy a model similar to this one in the mid-80's. Still works though it's been deep in a box for some decades and needs a good tear down. Even so, I used it earlier today! Maybe after I show it some love it will fully drive with the yellow loads. No matter what, this is so much cheaper and faster than using a hammer drill and tapcons. I really hate them.
US creators of tools are some of the best in the world, mate!!!
Genial esa gun hammer aca en Argentina es un lujo y jamás he visto un constructor de wood frame usar una de esas si la vi en un video de Canadá saludos muy buen video
I know the hammershot we have a lot application concrete stone steel and so for you demo I prefer use screw and ankle is to long yes but most performant
Thanks Adam! Very helpful video!
Is there a fully automatic version of this with a bump stock
Yes, but with a background and cavity check if you live in CA.
If it was fully auto, i don't believe you would need a bump stock, as the bump stock is meant to make a semi-auto weapon "automatic"?
Phrosty Twitch nope bump stocks don’t make semi automatic weapons automatic bc you still have to press the trigger every time you want to shoot it it basically just makes you shot very fast. If you only had to press the trigger once to shoot multiple then yes it would be automatic.
Good point that you don't need bump with an automatic. I was just throwing words around to sound cool
U can modify then that’s illegal.
Thanks for the video. Helpful. You should do another one that is 24 seconds for impatient people like me that want instant gratification when they are learning new tools
Very useful video! Thanks for the power comparison
I'm your new subscriber. ....I like your video 👍
thanks for actually showing how to load the bullet, a lot of videos don't.
using the ramset gives me a rush , it scares me a little but i like it!
Thanks Adam. Just a word about lubricating the gun afterwards; WD-40 is not a lubricant (well, initially it is, but not really) but a solvent. When you spray it on anything it actually dissolves any lubricant that was there. Better to use Tri-Flow for lubrication.
Enlightening and Helpful!!!keep up the good work!!!
this tool is new to me , so thanks doing a demo.
Very nice 👍 Your channel content is great
Thanks to you we found out how to shoot BBS with this .....
Best use of them it will pop off 90% of locks in one shot. best break in tool out there
Not if you're trying to be quiet. A lot of people don't know that you can pick almost any lock, because they're all equally crappy designs.
thanks for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for explaining how to use ramset tool ....
Thanks for the excellent video. All the demo videos for this tool show a vertical orientation for the shot. Does this work when you are trying to fasten a 2x4 to the side of a concrete patio?
Thanks for ur help learned a lot
really helpful video!!!!! Thanks!
Quick question. What do you think of the MAXtools high pressure nail gun? Would you make the switch if it meant saving time and money? 200-500psi. Can drive nails up to 5.5inches into steel or concrete. The full system with the high pressure gun and compressor is about $2k last i checked. The main benifit over a ramset is it is continuous. No need to reload on every single nail. No need to buy proprietary blanks and nails.
It seems overall a better system.
What are your thoughts?
i have been using 1 for years, my favorite deal is 1 time i was using in in a office building office some body heard it thought it was a gun shot and called the cops. i had to spend a hour telling the blank cop what a ramset is. but they are good tools
great video! Will this work on asphalt as well?
Thank you so much for sharing
Great job
I remember using this at a site and it kept splitting the cement lol I was like ooopppps
Good demonstration...
Hi Adam. I’m getting ready to build a shed kit. I have a concrete slab. The instructions are calling for sill plates to go directly onto the concrete slab - what would you suggest I use to attach the sill plates to concrete slab? Thanks in advance!
Great video. What about if you may need to remove wood from concrete later? I experimenting with various projects that may need to have the wood changed if it doesn't work for me.Will the gun allow for that? I know at least I could always unscrew the Tapcons, but was just curious.
I was helping to remodel an old house and the 150 year old wood was so hard we have to use one of those to nail to the old wood. I had never seen wood that hard before.
This is the Lockpicking Lawyer and today, I have a concrete block
Good one, Some People HAVE THAT HABBIT OF silly remarks, thanks
Thanks brother very helpful construction knowledge..👍
Thank you sir for your teaching.
I have a 9 pound H&R 22 bolt action rifle that is a tack driver that this reminded me of...Target shooting is fun...
I got one of these just a couple of weeks ago, and I loaded the hannergun just like the other 20 times and did its thing. But when I pulled the stock back to release the shot, it was stuck in the chamber. How am I supposed to get it out? I can't seem to get a bite on it with anything. Thanks.
This reminds me of Greener"s Humane Horse Killer.
Humane dog killer
Any suggestion on how to use this tool to drive several nails into a concrete floor such that they stick out a specific distance (say 3/4") so the nail does not go flush to the floor?
Thank you and it was nice demonstration
Was wondering what those nails were used for as I have a jar full of them at home.
interesting video, I forget what the purple level 6 loads are for, but they are a great tool.
Great Video.. Thank you.
Good video Adam thanks
So if I have existing walls on concrete but the base wood seems to just be regular fir 2x4's, how do I fix that is at all? I can't get under it to paint the wood or seal the concrete do I need to demo those walls or just let them rot?
Out of curiosity, do you hammer in the rest of that nail or do you insert another “bullet” and have it a go one more time to get it to go all the way down?
Great job! Thank you!
Hello Sir , This is an awesome tool for the construction industry. Can you let me know if there are any licences or documentation required for using or reselling this product?
Awesome video but hit it harder and it will drive if if it doesn’t drive I just throw another shot in there and whack the same pin again. Great maintenance advice!
Would it be able to drive in more thicker nails (diameter) into the concrete ?
Too Beautiful!
it's amazing! but I cannot find any stores in Vietnam that sell this device.
Split pool noodle down side, incase ramset within (the silencer), and blast any deadbolt.
"Any kind of penetrating oil"
*sprays WD40*
WD40 isn't a lubricant...
It's a WATER DISPLACER. It dries up.
Andrew G here we go. It does displace water. It is a lubricant. It dries up as any other.
He said a penetrating oil and WD40 is a penetrating oil. If it stops rust that can serve the same goal as lubrication as rust would increase resistance.
Hmm. Well, it seems to be working for his tool; he mentions it has been working for him for years.
@@bigpicturethinking5620 People that say, "wd-40 isN'T A LubRiCaNT," are possibly the dumbest people on the earth. You've got to be really slow to not know it is a lubricant. I'll bet some UA-cam idiot said, "WD is for water displacing, and it's not a lubricant."
@@xenonram Correct. It is a lubricant and water dispersant. It is not a penetrating oil though.
@AdamDIY any advice for setting a nail into red brick floors with one of these without shattering the brick? 2x4 bottom plate over red brick.
How does the nail bind to the concrete?
I’m using 3” nails and they won’t go in all the way using the yellow 22s. Is my concrete too strong or do I just need 2 1/2”?
use hammer drill to drill pivots about 1/4 of nail length into concrete... then use nail gun/ or forse 3 to 4 nails into pivot hole with hammer using heavy blows wich is more resistent but more work.
According to the instructions you're not supposed to spray oil in there but hey what do I know
What the instructions say I guess.
Also, WD40 is not a lube (though it has some oil inside) and is not intended to be used for the purposes of lubricating moving parts.
@@EujenSandu ... and you sure as hell wouldn't use it to try and "lube" your guns.
Used one of these and after a couple of shots I had police officers swarming my property. That Ramset was loud af. I forgot to call the local police to alert them that I was going to be using a Ramset. My neighbor had identified a suspect she saw shooting a gun. She got egg on her face when it was just me using the Ramset. I apologized to her as I didn’t inform her that I would be using a Ramset. I didn’t use it further, I just used a masonary drill and made holes for concrete anchors which worked out well.
PS: Cops just laughed about it and left.
You are so elaborate... who can miss a detail?
Amazing
Thanks buddy.
Best weapon 👍
I have used this tool in a basement. If I want to use it on a garage slab, how close to the edge can the nail get before it cracks out the edge?
Up in Canada at Home Depot they charge more than double that price for the entry level model. $52.87
That is nothing compaired to prices of pneumatic tools, which probably arent close to as strong.
Do I need a license to use this? Instead of guns, we can always carry this and a mallet. Lol
Hahaha WE NEED RAMSET CONTROL. HAHAA
Lol
Just wait till the people of welfare discover this for their drill videos
BooGieMan GonnAGetYou “ramset control” man mocked it😂😂😂
darned! they even shot their nails with a bullet into frikn wood :)
haha
great power tool
What color load should I use to fasten a treated 2x4 to concrete 20years old ? Yellow ? Red ?
Thanks for sharing👍👍
I bought a dewalt ramset, and I can’t seem to depressed the gun.
Am new to this...really new
No, it is just a very happy gun and positive gun.
Thank for the education.
Fantastic video my friend
