    It's probably been talked about here before, but how is everyone going about fixing their ply down?
    Generally I only ply bathrooms so I've been using my trusty old Maestri ME606, but occasionally I have to do a bit more. Even after a bathroom and ensuite the pinner is red hot and consequently gets repaired at least a couple of times a year.
    I don't really want to keep a compressor on the van, has anyone tried any of the cordless Makita or DeWalt options out there?

    Just get a small silent compressor and coil nailer. It’s well worth worth it

    I still use staples, but only when were plying over a chipboard deck, and its flat.
    Anything else, its a coil nailer.
    Ive not used them, but would think the Dewalt flexvolt battery compressors would be more than up to the odd bathroom.
