An amateur bought herself a brad nailer, and needed a quick tutorial. Thanks to to you she is sure she is now an expert 😜thank you 😀
You did an outstanding job! You were somewhat nervous in the beginning but you settled down and became very relaxed,sowing us that you are very experienced…Thank You!
Not a regular builder, just a newbie dyi-guy here, the nail curve consideration for gun angle position (and the 'finger nailed' warning 😯...) are much appreciated!
Excellent demo. The lesson content and structure was great, and you executed it succinctly executed it with easy to access language. I'm a 3rd grade teacher, and I also spend time training folks who are new to the profession. If you haven't already worked in schools--we need you out here!
Simple, complete, and to the point. Top drawer.
As I am a newbie, this was very helpful for me. It answers a lot of questions that I have. Thank you so much.
Hi Shannon - I can only echo other comments. My first nailer arrived yesterday and your excellent demo gave me all I need to make a start with my new tool. Thanks very much!
Just got an air nailer for Christmas. You throughly explained how to use it in plain language. Thank you very much!
What did I ever do before youtube. Thanks for the video.
just saw a $10 nailer on CL.
Watching this video increased my knowledge by some 1000 %
thanks
I’m new to power tools so I’m very grateful for your tutorials.
Great tips Shannon. I liked the tips about not having your fingers in the way as the nails can come out on a slant. Very good to know.
Great demo. I needed to know the difference between a finishing nailer and a brad nailer. This is explained to me perfectly what a Brad Miller is. Great demo thanks for terrific job
Once again I keep coming back because you are spot on. Thank-You Shannon. I'm working with one very soon and had no idea what to expect.
Thanks for the tutorial. Just bought brad and finish nailers, and I appreciated the safety pointers!
Same here
I love your helpful videos, put vinyl siding on my cabin and soffit and fascia on my house after watching your videos. They are detailed but easy to understand. Now I am learning to use my Brad nailer that has dust on it from lack of use. 😂.
Thanks and keep up the great work.

Thankyou for the tool intro and demo. The technique of keeping the tool so the nail won't come out the side is Great!
Your tutorials are my go- to! Glad I found this one!
Thanks a lot! You saved me time reading and misunderstanding the instructions. Better watch once
8:25 he was definitely able to zoom in close enough lol
Thanks for the videos! I'm learning a lot.
Thanks! I really needed to hear from about 8:50 to 9:40. I just got one of these and nearly all my nails shot out the side of my project. You explained the reason. And I think I was using nails that were way too long for the project.
More helpful information than I thought. Clear and informative, with the DETAILS and safety tips.
Getting ready to put in some door way trim. This helps a lot, because I have never used a nail gun before. Thank you very much.
Always very informative videos. It’s shows that you are a pro. Thank you for taking the time out to make such a great demo
Super helpful to me who knew nothing about these nailers. Thank you !
This video helped me get the job! Thank you!
Always informative. He is my go to guy on my kitchen reno.
I just bought one but have never used it and your video was just excellent in info.
Awesome video! I'm a newbie, so this was EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you, Sir!
Thank you made my day. I just received an old craftex and your tutorial has helped me a lot.
Thanks for sharing this-great info! I have the nailer, compressor, and correct size nails. I feel like I can now safely use the tool, to finish my project. I’m building some lanterns for a wedding. The nailer will allow me to create them fast, and build them to last.
Yes you can!
Thank you for the clear tutorial, and I love your accent!
You are so welcome!
I love videos that are right to the point. Well done.
Good, informative video, but the tip/caution at 9:20 is what got my thumbs up and should get a couple thumbs ups! Thank you! Wait, one more *Thank You*, I've never used an air nailer until here in the very near future for some shoe molding work and I had no idea about the brads veering off one way or another.
Glad it was helpful!
Always love your stuff. Keep up he quality work.
I really appreciate this video, thank you for posting!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, please make more beginner level topics like this for us to learn .
Working on it 👍
Thanks, I'm new to these and learned how to adjust the depth👍
This is a good video. It really helps us new folks.
Thanks Shawn for a good informative video !!
Always appreciate your videos
i'm forever having brads pop out of the face of what i'm nailing into, now i know how to help prevent that... Thanks, Shannon!!
Great video! You got some solid videos! I really enjoy your videos.
You've earned another subscriber!
Thanks for these types of videos.
Great video and very well explained
thanks for explaining it in a nice and simple way. cheers!
As always your videos are very informative. Thanks.
Appreciate the information. Comprehensive and easy to follow. Thanks!
Very informative. Thank you, good teacher behavior. Easy understandable.
Good tip on the bending direction
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video it was super helpful!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the info, great tips. I'm looking to find out more about how to use a compressor with the brad nailer too. Let me know if you have a video on that.
I do not specifically.
Good video, Shannon. One thing you didn’t mention, was about the glue on the “strips” of nails. It’s what hold the nails together; but more importantly, it’s also what helps to hold the nail in place. I just thought I’d add that to a great instructional video.👍
Thank you we are about to start a new project and were planning to add a nail gun. This was very helpful.
Our company is specialized in air technology,and even cooperate with the grainger,if you want to experience the our products, you can reply me for more information
Thanks for this video, it cleared up some simple mistakes I was making. 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for the very informative video, I always learn a lot when I watch your videos!
How to keep the ends from curving out of the sides. That's a gem! Lots of fingers saved with that one.
Great video buddy
Great tutorial Shannon! You should be a shop teacher😎👍👍
Helpful video! Thanks for shedding light on the nature of these tools - we love seeing this!
Excellent video
Excellent helpful video
All I would say with my limited experiance but a D.I.Y. Go Makita I have never looked back since purchasing the Mak have tried several others but nothing to touch it !! Good for those that
want something at a sensible price but with great performance for less than £100 here in the uk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the info it helped me out alot on using my nailer
Great info Thanks Mate
All the best
Awesome video! I'm not handy but have lots of home projects this Summer this is really helpful! 👍👍👍👍
Exactly what I was looking for...thanks for posting!
Very useful discussion- thx for posting - do you have any thoughts on which compressor should be chosen?
From a new DIY wife, thank you!
Good video Shannon. Do you have a video on using a framing nailer properly.
Ron
Interestingly enough I do not yet. That one is going on the list! thanks.
@@HouseImprovements
Great thank you. I have had issues with damaging the board when face nailing near the end of the board or when toe nailing. I know it’s mostly nail placement put some good tips would be helpful. I have used finish nailers, etc for years but just recently started using a framing nailer. I’m looking forward to seeing a video like that as well as what ever you guys post. Always interesting and I always learn something.
Ron
I have a 17 gauge and an 18 gauge Brad nailer, and if I tilt the gun to the left or to the right, the nail won't go in all the way. Are all nailer's that way? 11:38
You should be able to tilt the gun and still sink nails. You need to set the depth deeper or maybe adjust the air pressure a little if you have no depth adjustment
Ya did good, man. Very informative. Thanks.
Thank you. I couldn't find my instruction books
Great video. Thanks, Shannon.
Thank you. I'm planning to buy one soon and this video really helps.
Great video and excellent explanations.
So helpful! Thank you!
Best video for this 69 yr old lady do it her selfer !!! Thanks !
That was very informative, Thanks
Very good vid. Thank you!
A comment to get the algorithm all excited.
That's Good Info For Me Buddy,Cause I just Bought A Brad,And Need'ed some Know how..I Heard There Good For Roofing.
Just opened my Bostitch 2 in 1, oiled and ran as directed. Worked for a few staples, then stopped. It quietly fired, but nothing comes out. Will call Bostitch, but have any ideas? Great video!
I've got a bedroom that I'm working on, and the old paneling was busted up and hanging off the walls of the house I just bought. I know a little, but not a lot when it comes to remodeling certain things in a house ..... with that said, would a Brad nailer be recommend when hanging the new paneling? I'll be using the full sheets of 4x8 Hardboard wall panel
Normally a brad nailer would not be best, the nails will tend to shoot right through. I would use small nails with a head on them or maybe a air stapler.
@@HouseImprovements would this be sufficient?
yes
Great tutorial. Thanks!
Great video thanks
Your videos are always fantastic. I have a Brad Nailer And a good air compressor given to me by a friend. However I can’t seem to get the nailer to work. Any troubleshooting suggestions you might have? Thanks in advance. You should start your own school!
THANK YOU SHANNON--I HAVE NEVER KNEW HOW THOSE GUN OPERATE OR EVEN LOAD ONE OF THOSE TYPES OF GUN. MAYBE I CAN GET ONE OF THOSE SMALL ONES. AGAIN THANKS ...
Outstanding. Curious as to what length of nail you would use for quarter round shoe molding. And how far apart would you place the nails? Lastly, do you just paint over the nail after you have attached the shoe molding to the baseboard?
If you are nailing it directly to floor or baseboard then 1-1/2" long and about every 16" would be fine. Fill the hole and sand and paint
Very good!
Can you use bostick brad nails in a poter cable brad gun
Pretty much any brand nail will fit any brand gun so long as they are the correct gauge/length. Sometimes you can get issues so try one pack fist before you purchase an assortment of sizes in that brand.
This is awesome video, i just bought an 18 gauge brad nailer can i use a 3 gallon air compressor for this..thank you sir!
Always appreciate info. Thanks
Does pressure make any difference in whether the nail curves or not?
bdkane721 The biggest factor in nails curving is low quality steel. If you buy cheap nails expect curves among other problems. Name brands like Senco or Paslode shouldn't give you any trouble.
Thanks, very informative.
Thank you good video 😀
Got to love, when a brad nail curls on you and gets the fingers.
Would have been nice if you talked about PSI for different nails, materials, or tasks. I recently used a nail gun for the first time and had to play with that a bit. Thanks though Shannon.
Ya I guess i missed that. Pretty much the material determines the PSI. I find in 90% of what I do 100-110 PSI will pretty much do it.
@@HouseImprovements Your channel is the best. I've done a lot on my home with your help buddy..
Thanks for that video on brad nailer. i have a question can the the wen 18 gauge brad nail gun use on concrete to fasten PVC ceiling panel?
brad nailers will not fasten anything to concrete .
Great video buy the way We call the nail stacks a clip in our group.
Very good video. Thanks.
