EXCEPTIONAL VERSATILITY
We'd like to draw your attention to the extremely versatile Hitachi NT65MA4 finish nailer! Due to the integrated air duster, all the dust and small debris after the work is done will be self-cleaned in an easy way, so you actually can get a 2-in-1 tool. The distinctive feature of the nailer is its usability. A handy design and magazine angle make it easy to get in the tightest places. With regard to safety, it seems that everything is carefully thought-out here. To fire a nail, it's not enough to pull the trigger - you need to press a nail nose to the material surface.
In addition, Hitachi NT65MA4 features a special dial for depth adjustment. Taking into account density of used materials, you can set the nail penetration depth. And...you wouldn't need to change air pressure level like you'd have to do using a different model!

Nail Maiking: Then and Now
Now, nail making isn't such a painstaking process how it actually used to be. In the seventeenth century, for example, 60,000 people were engaged in manufacturing nails in the UK. To make a single nail, a blacksmith heated an iron rod, cut off a nail length and formed a point. Then, he inserted the semifinished nail into an anvil and made a nail head with a hammer.
Nails manufacturing was very time-consuming but demand was rapidly increasing. Eventually, at the end of the eighteenth century, newly-invented nail-cutting machines helped people automate this process. Now, nails are produced really fast and in a great variety of shapes for a significant number of specialized purposes.

It's safe to say that it's not about Senco 4G0001N nailer! It is sooo easy to work with this nailer - you won't feel any fatigue even after a long continuous project. Regardless its light weight (4.5 lbs) and compact size, it's perfect to use even with hardwoods such as oak. Senco 4G0001N FinishPro 42XP is ideally suited for interior and exterior trim jobs, production of door and window casings, wood flooring.

Senco 4G0001N Finish Nailer is made of magnesium and so, the construction is very lightweight and wear-resistant. The same like other nailers, Senco isn’t protected from jamming, but to fix this issue, manufacturer provided EZ-Clear latch for easy nails removal. There’s another zest to the nailer, Neverlube technology, which enables long and lubricant-free operation.
Nails and Art
You may believe it or not, but with the help of nails and hammer, it's possible not only to do building or repairing but also create real masterpieces. For Marcus Levine, an outstanding painter and sculptor, nails and hummer have already replaced paints and pen. Varying the depth and distance between nails on wooden panels, he creates stunning artworks out of nails. Initially, the artist created abstract paintings of inanimate objects, but then he focused on a human body. The author explains, "Interplay between the rigid, angular nails and the soft curves of a human torso, would be fantastically striking". This new idea drew attention of artist's fans who've had a chance to do justice to unusual but creative approaches of Marcus Levine before. The price for his works depends firstly, on complexity of work and secondly, on the number of nails used. For example, one of his masterpieces at Gallery 27 in London was estimated between $5.000 to $39000. And perhaps, one day, Marcus will create something even more special with a help of a finish nailer...

Before Metal Nails
Long before the common nails were invented, people had made different fasteners with the help of various materials which could be fish and animal bones, thorns of the plants, etc. Wooden nails were also widely used for a long time. They resembled wedges and were applied mainly in building vessels. Interestingly enough, nails were made of different types of wood - depending on a purpose. For sea vessels, the nails could be made of oak, pine, maple and acacia and then, coated in resin to ensure longer service life. Surprisingly enough, people didn't stop using wooden nails even after proper metal fasteners had arrived on the market. And they are still in use, mostly for production of exclusive shoes.

What is a Finish Nailer
Many people still use common hammers during construction and finish jobs. However, why would you want to waste your time and energy driving tiny nails in the walls if you've got an opportunity to use a real tool - a Finish Nailer?
It should be borne in mind that apart from Finish Nailers, there are many other types of nail guns intended for different purposes and nails. Finish Nailers, in their turn, are commonly available in 15 and 16 gauge variations. It's necessary to note that 15 gauge nailers can drive 2-1/2" nails and they are recommended to use with heavy wood planks for performing furniture, interior and exterior trim work. 16 gauge Nailers are also used with 2-1/2" nails and they're ideal for base molding, doors and window casings.
For your wood projects, you may be also interested in jig saws.
What Features to Compare
To choose the right Finish Nailer, firstly, it's necessary to consider key features that contribute to comfort and ease of use. First of all, nailers differ in Types:
- Pneumatic nail gun. These nailers are most popular among customers. It's important to know that a pneumatic nail gun requires a compressor to supply pressurized air.
- Combustion powered nail gun. To work with such a tool, it's necessary to have a gas tank (propane is the most frequently used). The nailer can come with or without the tank, but still, you'd need it.
- Electric nail gun. These models are used for finishing jobs. As a rule, electric nailers have small dimensions.
Technical Features
When choosing the Finish Nailer, pay attention to the technical characteristics that influence its operation and efficiency. If you consider electrical or battery-powered appliances, estimate the tool power. Likewise, pressure indicators are essential if you're going to work with pneumatic finish nailers. Don't neglect a nail magazine capacity - the more nails it can hold, the less time would be required to load them in. An angle the nailer can work at is equally crucial - it'll make your work more maneuvering.
Convenience and Safety
Another vital function of Finish Nailers that can significantly simplify your work is a nail depth adjustment. Consider different additional features too so as to see what benefits you can acquire together with a purchase. Some of them are light weight, air blower, battery charge indicator, lockable contact trip, belt hook, etc.
