I have both of these nail guns and I absolutely love them!!! but I still use pneumatic nail guns it certain applications if you can afford to upgrade to the battery operated trim guns I highly recommend it. If not you should definitely look into buying the pneumatic versions of these guns . I actually have them both battery operated and pneumatic They are amazing guns and have been engineered with a brand new technology I believe it’s called smart point or fine point technology. This technology and these guns are the most user-friendly and reliable trim guns I have ever shot. Even the angled gun shoots every single time and anyone that has used a angled trim gun knows that they are not the most reliable when it comes to pulling the trigger and expecting a nail to shoot out!
There is nothing new about smart point technology. Bostitch has been using it for quite some time on their phnumatic line. Bostitch and dewalt owned by same company so the technology was transferred over.
If you want pneumatic dewalt isn’t too of the line. Bostitch And hitachi blow it out the water. Battery operated though dewalt and hitachi are the only contenders.
Are you a fan of pin nailers?
crunch9876 In my view you cant beat bostich
John Davidson well boating and dewalt battery nailer are 100 percent the same except for battery. What would you rather have a battery for one tool? Or a dewalt battery that could fit a lot of tools.
crunch9876 bostich neumatic i was talking about.. had the 23 guage used almost daily for 11 years with no issues
Man I absolutely love the detailed explanations provided. So often professionals forget to go into detailed explanations because it's so second nature to them. For a newbie, like myself, your talks are very informative/helpful.You're a natural teacher. Thanks so much for your videos. Keep them coming!
I had to pause the video to write this...I’m only doing what this guy says. Look at his work, my goodness. Humble, honest and relatable.
Thanks for the review just went out and got myself the 18 gauge Dewalt nailer...wow what a nail gun no more charging up air compressors for me!!😎😎
Thank you I really appreciate all the information. You've pretty much answered all the questions I had.
Brother, this was VERY helpful.
I am not a pro. But I am a very experienced DIYer. I have done everything, except for finishing work.
Right now, I am remodeling one of my bathrooms and for the first time, I am replacing baseboards. I usually attach all things with screws, and that won't do for finishing work, so I am learning new tricks. In as much, I picked up an 18 gauge nail gun. I was about to do both the baseboards and the trim molding with that gun.
But then I watched your video. Now I know I need a 15 for the actual baseboards. I just picked one up on ebay. You saved me, literally, a day before I made that mistake.
Thank you!
As ever, great video - informative and great tone and delivery. Timely for me as I’m currently looking for a cordless nail gun - learned a lot and you’ve made my mind up. Many thanks, keep ‘em comin’.
This video gave me exactly the information that I needed. I had it in my head beforehand that I needed a 15 and a 18 gauge gun, and you just confirmed what I was thinking.
I’m a Building Services Engineer and occasionally I have to do some ‘fabrics’ work and a nail gun will come in extremely handy, also with my work at home making my own cabinets.
15ga for the meaty stuff and 18ga for the trim. Thanks FCTV.
Great job explaining the differences! I have the Dewalt 15 and 18 and love them. Thanks for taking the time to make this. Cheers!
Thank you so much for your explanation I totally enjoyed watching your video. And now know the difference in guns..keep up the good work on your videos..I from lake elsinore California.
Thank you so much for all your help we really appreciate it !!!
Thank you for your expertise and demonstration!
Love your vids. How real you are and informative .
Keep making them..... please
Thanks. Very informative. I have never bought one, and this was helpful to me.
Great, I totally learned from this video. Yes, please tell us about the trim-head screws!
Very helpful. Thank you. I agree, you need both.
have used trim head screws a lot doing commercial work with steel studs in the past. i like your videos ive been out of the trades for years but have continued to do wood working until my divorce when i had to sell the property where my shop was. i recently started a handyman business and do a little bit of everything i bought a 7 1/4 ryobi 18v two years ago to do some small mouldings and it work fine for the application i purchased it for still running all my old bostitch finish guns as they still work great . thanks for the vids im refreshing a bunch.
Would love to see a video on nail placement on different kinds of trims. Other than not getting too close to the edge (and splintering the wood), I don't have a specific plan on where I shoot nails.
Which gun you should buy depends on what you do for a living and your budget.
For the homeowner/diyer on a limited budget I recommend getting a pneumatic nailer and one of the quiet compressors. For the price of a cordless nailer you can get a pneumatic nailer, a hose and a nice compressor. And that air compressor with a blower nozzle can be used for quickly cleaning up a work bench and power tools or blowing off dust from your clothes. I also use my compressor to apply water-based clear coats.
For the pro driving finish nails all day cordless is the bomb!!!
Thank you. Great job! You are a good presenter!
I loved my 18g Senco cordless nailgun when I started doing cabinets. This was in 05-06 so there were no other cordless nailsguns in sight(well craftsman had one but it was terrible) and for doing tech work I needed something convenient. Also loved my 23g for attaching rope moulding and shooting crown miters together, especially on the smaller stuff. Between a compressed air tank(get an aluminium one of you can, so much lighter) for the 23g and my Ridgid 18g(it was a beast, never oiled it and it never jammed) and the Senco I was set. Seeing things like cordless miter and table saws, brushless motors(I bought the Makita impact when it first came out around 06-07) and cordless everything makes me wish this stuff was out when I needed it.
Thanks for sharing. Appreciate your work!
I re-did all the baseboards in the house several years ago. After doing the first bedroom with a hammer and nails I got a cheap 18g nail gun. Saved me SO much time in doing the rest of the rooms.
Hey mate. Great video. I have a 16g cordless d\Dewalt - The 16 gauge paslode nails from Home Depot work fine in it.
Thank you. Great video and after watching it, I went to home depot and bought Dewalts 15 ga XR 20 v finish nailer and 18 ga XR 20volt brad nailer. Cutting the cord and going cordless. I love the tools.
It's so much more convenient. How are you liking them a year later?
Excellent vid man, thanks! Definitely, do a trim head screw video!
The way u explain it,makes perfect sense. U need a show on HGTV or DIY. great video
Best review I've seen yet on nail guns. Good job Bro
Bought a Ryobi 18 gauge air strike, and love it!!! Has the LED lights to see in darker spaces.
We use a 15 gauge nailer on exterior trim applications- deck skirt boards, 1x or 5/4 trim, and also to set door jambs. The BIGGEST nail I would ever use on crown, casing, etc is an 18. No way I would want to fill the hole left by a 15 or even 16 gauge nailer in crown or casing on interior applications. I tell you what we have gotten in the habit of using- 23 gauge pin nailers. They hold unbelievably well and on cabinet mouldings- other than crown to face frame- that’s all we use. Someone needs to make a battery powered 23 gauge nailer (it would be heavy I know) but that would be awesome. Embrace the pin nailer. It’s the best nailer for toe nailing mouldings together and will hold a lot better than you think. And a super small hole to putty. For interior trim 18 and 23 get the job done!
Don’t laugh me out of the comments but don’t sleep on the ryobi’s I have the 18 and narrow crown stapler and they work great especially for almost a half the price of Milwaukee or default. They just don’t make a framing gun
I like the Ryobi. I also have a larger gauge DeWalt, but I pick the Ryobi every time. Less fatigue due to less recoil, lighter, more quiet and better faster operation. Smaller gauge nails means smaller holes to patch up.
My 18 gauge ryobi have been probably the best $150 I've spent. I usually do light stuff though. About to buy a 16gauge ryobi also and then a dewalt framing. Battery powered all the way
Yo im a dewalt guy but the ryobi is best batt trim gun ive used
They got a framing one now lol
It gets stuck if u don’t use it often. Sometimes u get what you pay for 😅
Fantastic RUclips page. Very helpful for beginners. Thank you.
I have a 15 and 18 bostitch guns that run off air. It’s so nice to have both. Good video last winter I was looking for a video just like this trying to decide on a 15 or 16 gauge.
Love the glasses while talking nails guns! Thought for sure there would be some terminator reference hut koh was good enough.
Thanks dude! I now know which one I need!
Good overview of nail guns. The demos were excellent!!! Thank you. 👍
I learned so much. Thanks!!!
Thanks for explanning and demonstrating difference applications when selectibg right nail-gun! I'm a DEWALT person myself!
DeWalt woman here!!!
Orale carnalito..I have d DCN660 16G DeWalt myself....I love it for wat I do...ever since I was affected by Harvey I’ve been rebuilding my house ...of course ur videos have helped me buy my arsenal of tools n yes most r DeWalt ...u have helped me rebuild my house wit ur videos...muchos gracias carnalito.
Glad to help!
I recently went with hitachi brushless guns and there absolutely fantastic ! Mostly use a 15 gauge for interior door installs , my most used fun is the 18 gauge for just about all trim work except very large trim . Also a 23 gauge pinner . but now I don't know what to do with all my air stuff lol !
Love your videos bro, keep on keeping on!
This videos has helped me so much as I just got rid of my second hand 16g paslode and am looking to replace it. it’s dumb of me but I always thought 18g nails would’ve been bigger nails but now I know! I need the nailer for skirting and architrave on site so think I’ll stick with 16g both guns seem rad
I watched this to the. Somehow it is never boring, but enjoyable. Thanks, man
Thanks for the video....I learned a lot out of this....
I have run my Senco pneumatic 15ga & 18ga for 20yrs, I bought a pasload when they first came out it was nice for small jobs when I didnt want to drag my compressor out but I had alot of issues with my pasload. Im going to checj out the Dewalt guns now. Thanks
Thanks 4 the brake down.... For I am a novice.. And you helped a mil
Thank you for the video. That was Very helpful
Gotta tell ya as a stair guy of 16 years your videos are very informative some things you do I learn from it but like any other carpenter we critique
I like the nails in the storage box, all of mine are in an ammo box and I have to drag all of them out to get the one I need. Top tip brother.
I noticed your comment about recoil. I spend most of my nailing time using a Brad nailer these days, but I have plenty of time on smaller pinners as well as full size framing guns. The recoil seems pretty similar across them all, I assume the weight is pretty proportionate to the force.
I love my 18 ga cordless dewalt. My other favorite gun is my 18ga narrow crown stapler. I use it to do moist stop flashing for nail on frames, amazing time saver and less wear on you vs tacker hand stapler
For window and door trim I use the Home Depot line of ryobi Brad nailers. Works in Canada during the coldest winters and ive dropped them many times they still work. Also cheap af....also the ryobi nailers have a LED LIGHT WHICH WORKS WELL IN DIM HOUSES
I'm new to this but interested in doing wainscoting so this video was very informative.. Thanks. Love all your videos.
Thanks for all the good information
Thanks RIchard for your videos. They all are excellent. Hoping someday you create a video on installing crown molding on a vaulted ceiling. Would really be a help!
Thanks!!!
Warren Fipp check out Ron Paulk he has videos in details about crown molding on vaulted ceilings
Thanks for the video. Very informative.
great video mate :) cant wait for the next one and for shore do a trim head screw video that would be sick :D
Never judge a book by its cover!
VERY WELL EXPLAINED!
Two Thumbs Up !👍👍
Easiest answer! Ryobi brad nailer for your most trim work! Light gun, never jams, costs pennies!!! If you need speed and putting out thousands of nails per minute (like putting pickets on or balusters on the deck), go with Dewalt 2.5 inch angle nailer. I've tried every single brand and type of nailers and so far those two are my most favorite ones, and I am a milwaukee guy, so that tells you how much I trust in those two.
I second the ryobi for home users. Mine has been great.
hitachi all the way, try one and youll never want anything else
You are right. The ryobi is amazing... but the battery will not work at around 10 / 15 degree Celsius.
Yea the ryobi 18 gauge nailer is surprisingly good.
Yea do something on the trim head screws and uses on the job
I really like the fence on your mitre box! I’m going to search for it online now. I own every gun in the video. I had the Paslode olskool long battery 16ga and also the shorter battery newskool gun and they ALL misfire. NEVER had that problem with the DeWalts!! I LOVE the DeWalt 20v guns! Great videos! How about a video on installing high end solid core stained doors and jambs. I appreciate your detailed videos!
Dude you're one of the reasons I bought a Paslode 16g. I'm still using it for just about anything, including tacking door jambs before screwing then off
Same here...going to have to sell mine for cheaper then he is now!
Robert Cary I don’t like the ramp up of the DeWalts
Very informative video! Thank you!
I have used a 15 and 18 ga for years with various nail lengths for the application. I don't think I have ever even used 16 ga. Nail. Good video
Helped a lot thanks!
Awesome video.. you are so humble.. Haters are gonna hate on you., they can go pound sand.. (take a hike).. Kudos to your buddy doing the recording..
I have the Dewalt framer and it's GREAT but it jams periodically, as well as it is HEAVY. I am 64 and it wears me out. But it's a terrific time saver and does the job well. I do not have the 15gua Dewalt tho. I also own the the Pasload finish nailer, and it was my first purchase a number of years back.It's almost flawless. Never jams, and generally runs like a champ. But it uses those gas cartridges that always seem to be running out.
I’m going to Lowe’s right now to buy a 15 gauge finish nailer. Thank you.
Edit: Went to Lowe’s and couldn’t find what I wanted. I’m going online now. Thank you again for the vid.
Same
Lowe’s is not the place to go for tools
Wow man, great work. I’m sharing This with the wife while we’re debating what nail guns to get for our remodel(turning our mobile home into a house, a trailer into a McMansion).
Liked and sub’d snd I’ll be learning some good shit here.
I have used the dewalt 18 ga after being a diehard paslode user. It is so much better for repetitive nailing. It’s a more accurate nailer In my opinion. Also angled is the way to go. Straight nailers seem to never be able to get into tighter places like the angle guns can...
Any nail that goes deeper than 3/4 " into the stud is hard on the gun and increases the risk of hitting a wire or mechanical line. 16 gauge nails are. 1/5 the cost of 15 degree angled nails-wow....but I love a 15...it connects. Hitachi new cordless guns are the bomb . Hit just like air...because they use air.
I do a lot of smaller bathroom and kitchen jobs and these dewalt guns make it so much quicker than having to set up hoses and compressor. The cordless roofing nailer is great too for repairs or to have a backup for the guy on the other side of the roof and can be used for siding with an adapter.
At first when your video showed up in my search with 16mins of footage, i was like “aw man here we go again another guy with the bs of rambling like a rock star on internet,” but as i watched your transparency and honesty with humility i sat through your whole entire video and said to myself “shit that’s it?” 😂😂😂
I think 16ga is very versatile. Kind of the 'jack of all trades, master of none'' If you could only afford one' id go a 16ga because generally you can do the vast majority of what you need with only draw back of larger holes.
"You should buy all of them" - that's about right. For pneumatics, we have a brad nailer, finishing nailer, framing nailer, roofing nailer, and palm nailer. Not even kidding. I would also have a siding nailer too, but the roofing nailer has an adapter.
I think a better question about nailers than what should you buy is actually, "How many nail guns should you buy?" or better yet, "What's the right amount of nail guns you should buy?" And the correct answer is n + 1.
Thank you for the information 👍
Enjoy your videos and very much appreciate the time you take to make these and share your amazing skills and secrets. Question: When installing crown molding are you concerned at all about making sure you hit studs or are you ok just nailing into the Sheetrock itself? Thanks
Man bro thanks for this video I learned some stuff I didn’t know
I haven’t had any issue finding 16gauge. But then again I’m remodeling my own house not as a business so I use a ryobi 16g nailer since it was cheap and the battery is the same for all my other tools. But thanks for the info!
Great explanation . Thank you much
You won me over to your ability to explain when you hooked the 18 gauge on your pants and voiced your subtle and useful observation that it wasn't pulling on your pants/belt.
I love the 15 gauge dewalt precision tip
I’d also appreciate a jamb screw video. How often do you install jamb extensions?
Just wondering if you use a 23 g headless pinner? My Grex pin nailer and glue is my main gun for small molding and furniture grade crown etc.
Dude great video thank you!!!
Thank you. You've answered my questions on deciding what nailer to buy. What size air compressor should I buy for the 15 gauge and 18 gauge nailer? TYIA.🙏
I like the 'King of the Hill' reference you slipped in there lol
Great video Richard thanks
Great video and description of the various tools. With the 2.5" nails do you ever hit electrical cables running through holes in the wood? Typically the hole for the cable is about 1.25" from the edge of the stud. With a 2.5" nail you have about 1/4" in the molding, 1/2" through the drywall and 1.75" into the stud. Sounds like a potential problem.
great video- helped me a lot
Thanks for the great video! Do you have any recommendations on cordless pin guns?
I got Paslode 16 gauge angled nails and they work fine in the DeWalt 16 gauge angled nailer
I had one of those yeller ones ripped off out of the bed of my pickup. Worst day ever. I loved that thing.
I did have a Stanley bostitch gas nailer and I found them very temperamental and then when I lived in Canada for a while I used the Milwaukee battery nailer for the first time which I was impressed with but I ended up buying the DeWalt battery pinner and they are quality. I think I’ll buy the 15 gauge one also.
Dude, loved this review.
Another excellent video, very informative. Make the video on trim head screws.
Good Info, Thank you!
Another great video. It’s about time too, my RUclips was getting boring without my DFW videos.
Awesome job thank you so much
Advice needed please.
Love the channel, I love DIY and I’m in the middle of renovating a property. I need to erect feather board fencing around the perimeter of the garden. I currently have 18 & 16 gauge nailers. I’m guessing these are too lightweight to attach the boards. What nailer type / nail length would you recommend?
Thanks in advance
