I adore my pneumatic nailers (nail guns). I have one for each type of nail
and two types of staples. They make things very fast and easy. I also like
my air impact wrench for changing tires.

Next toy, air grease gun. Why? cause when I change the grease on my boat
trailer bearings I have to pump a stupid hand gun about 100 times to cycle
out all the old grease in the hub (the hub has a zirc fitting). And I have
to do it twice a year.
