    Never heard of that one. No different to a paslode really, and chippies never seen to have a problem.
    Sites will want safety glasses worn I would think

    Just got round to picking mine up today, have just opened it to have a play ,only to find it has a silly two pin plug on the charger, it's no big deal ,i'm just surprised they are selling something in this country without the correct plug

    So nobody ever replied if it was any good so i bought one.

    Shoots perfectly into normal concrete, it works around edges that would usually crack when youd pin it,reducing the need for glue and saving money on flexyfix as well as being faster and not having to carry tubes of glue,a glue gun and spray adhesive from plot to plot.

    Ive only used it on 2 powerfloat floors, one it shot into perfectly fine, the other it would fire ok in places but had so much stone in the mix the floor would just shatter. If youve got alot of prep to do or even an apprentice you dont want smacking skirtings then its worth its money,saves your arms.

    Grippered 300sqm yesterday,most rooms would have 2 walls that need glueing as the concrete only finished just under the skirting line, i used half a tube all day. 20190614_140656.jpg
