    It's the extension and auto feed system you can atatch onto the end of a plasterboard screw gun and therefore fix ply from standing upright. ( Can't post links yet :( )
    Does anyone use one of these and what do you all think about this tool?
    Very tempted to get one myself

    Had a go of one but screws are dear.
    Happy with a coil nailer.

    Most suppliers that I use stock plastic collated 19mm. C&F & STS defiantly do.
    For other sizes you buy direct from Spotnails with next day delivery.

    Mine is a tacwise coil nailer so I can still use other brands correct? Also people keep telling me the plastic collated are pita for jamming but I've never tried them, you get on alright with them Neil?

    I find plastic miles better than metal collated. With the metal I always find that it leaves sharp edges by the head of the nail.
    No jamming issues with plastic on mine

    Plastic ones don’t work in your gun only the metal which are better imo anyway and you get a lot more for your money

    A place local to me sells Spotnails for 32 quid plus vat per box o_O
