Thank you for doing this review.Everyone else does reviews about cordless tools but this is exactly what I was looking 4!Thanks mate!
Thanks. Appreciate your video which has helped me to decide to get this particular piece of kit.
That was SUPER helpful, thank you so much☺
Fantastic video. I'm going to pull the trigger on this instead of a cheap one. Got the same compressor coming too. Thank you
Very helpful review. I love all my Makita tools and this one doesn't look like being an exception!
Brilliant stuff great review thanks!
Smashed it! REALOAD! thanks a lot mate, gonna order one right now.
Cool man
I can't believe how quiet it is. Click and it's done! Ordering one now...
Fantastic !
Great review, this will be my next purchase 👍
Clear review, easy to understand.Cheers!
Cool man 👍
Brilliant video thank you 👍
Greeting from Across the Pond! Good video, good tool.
beautiful
Nice one, was looking at this exact compressor/nailer set up.
Go for it, it's spot on
What a beautiful quiet gun... That's how japanese do.... TNX for video
I just ordered 15ga version 🤩
Brilliant. I've been doing my homework on the whole air compressor tool thing. That little compressor is coming in at just over 100 pounds at the moment. I'd like something bigger, with a view to moving on to some spray painting, but I don't really have the space for a monster unit, and I'm not up for a ding dong with the neighbours on noise levels. I do have cordless nail guns - both 18 and 16 gauge - but for small projects they are a bit cumbersome. Like the look of the Makita. Thanks for sharing.
I have the very same brad gun and I LOVE it!!! A couple of observations- you frequently use the terms "brads" and "staples" interchangeably. Secondly, Makita specifically warns against using the hook to hang it from your belt or trousers due to the danger of accidentally bradding yourself in your leg. Otherwise, nice video!
Looked at one of these but bought a Maestro SE30-08 which is ideal for the cabinet joinery I do. Can't lug a compressor around so it had to be electric and corded. If I wanted an air brad nailer I'd look at the Makita though.
hi nice review im after a polyurothane air line but i can only get one with the euro fittings which is ok as i have a hyundai compressor as well as the makita nailer but can only get 3/8"pipe would that be ok as i know nowt about hoses and connectors 🤔🤔👍
Thank you for this informative video, I am new to this stuff altogether. I bought this nailer from one shop, as it shows in the video there is no hooking nuzzle, or anything here. I bought a Metabo compressor in another shop and a set of hose and nuzzles in another shop. The Makita nailer does not fit into the hose I have. The nailer has a longer nose. I see a hose in the description but as I live in Norway, I cannot buy it in the UK. Is there any specific code for the right hose for this nailer that I find it here?
Oh wow I didn't know Chris Martin has a diy channel 😀
Good review thanks. Couple of questions, would it be ok for melamine faced chipboard, and what pressure were you using?
You'd need to play around with the pressure on the nailer, but it would be fine on melamine chipboard, would leave a hole in the melamine obviously, so not a good idea if you want to keep it clean.
cheers
hey Justin What is the air hose that you have connected to the gun? thanks man
Thank you for the review. I am a novice with woodworking I have considered getting this nailer. One question, is the nailer really that quiet? In the video, it sounds like a faint 'click' when engaged.
I have this one and the 16 gauge. Was wondering why it's so quiet in the video as well. Mine is a lot louder and would recommend ear protection if doing a lot of nailing
I’ve got the Makita AF505 , I’m trying to see if I can change the loading cassette for a staple cassette, have you come across anything ? Cheers. Neil.
In your opinion, do you think this would be any good for cladding an outbuilding/shed with 22mm boards onto 4x2’s? I can’t decide if it’s big enough for the job and was surprised how it flew through that MDF and hardwood.
I think it'll be ideal, get yourself some 50mm brads and fire away! Definitely powerful enough
Bad boy
Hi Justin I found your videos as I had bought the same compressor and Brad nailer and watched your videos to help with the set up as never used a compressor before in my curtain and soft furnishing workshop. I bought a 1/4 pipe and connected it but while using the nailer it was losing a lot of air near the back of the nailer, you did say you would leave a link for the pipe that you said fits perfect but can’t see it, I’m thinking the pipe I have must not be the best fit those the air from the back of the nailer where the connector is. Thanks in advance.
Hi Melanie, if you look at the video description on the brad nailer video, you'll find it there.
The link is now in the compressor video description too.
@@JBTV Thank you so much for quick reply, i have now ordered.
@@Blackbear1913 Did this fix your issue Melanie? I'm looking for a similar setup
I have a cheap Brad nailer but I’m seriously considering one of these…
It's ace, get one!
@@JBTV it’s ordered already 🤣🤣 👍🏽
Just wondering how many staples/nails fired before the compressor kicks in again?
Not sure, maybe 40-50
do you need to add oil to this nailer
Your compressor is 7bar and the gun should be running on 8 bar. I just wondered if there was any problems with that?
Cost & size of pins used
Is that a Hyundai 24 litre compressor??
How much do it cost
Don’t hang it on your pants, unintentionally firing it could result in an unfortunate circumstance
