Not related to plumbing but this is the remodel forum...
I need to purchase a compressor and framing nailer. I've used them before when working for contractors years back but never owned for my own DIY around home use.
I'm looking for a budget setup- to finish my basement and other minor home projects so not for day-after-day, year-after-year use.
I've seen a 6 gallon, Porter Cable pancake compressor, and Porter Cable nailer, The total is around $370
I've seen similar products in an off brand from Harbor Freight- nailer and compressor- Central Pneumatic brand where the combined cost is about $200.
Wondered if anybody had experience with this Central Pneumatic brand or any other thoughts on framing nailers and/or compressors?
For the nailers: Any thoughts on the angle 21 deg, or 32 deg? Full round head v. clipped head? Brands,etc?
