Just can't see how that would work. What would keep the "nail" heads from popping off? I can't see how the nail itself would be strong enough to countersink it, which is a large reason we use air nailers.

How careful would you have to be with "nail" storage to keep them at the right humidity so they didn't swell? What happens when you hit a knot... does the nail break off so you have a stub sticking up requiring sanding? When the gun doesn't set the nail flush, can you pound in the wooden nail in, or more important, can you drive it in without breaking the head?

To me, this looks like a solution to a non existent problem.

Interesting! Possibly something to look forward to, but probably not in my lifetime for a hobbyist.

Wonder if lubricating the gun would affect the/some nails? Might not matter for framing/construction, but it may for a fine woodworking project.

Seems the sheer strength of the nails are limited. For a larger diameter and/or longer nail, the driving force would compromise the strength of the nail. Beck does state they are working on those criteria. *Might need to translate to English, as the original website is German/Austrian/Slovic language.

It is a solution to a specific set of conditions.

Specialized nail-gun using specialized nails - not much different
in concept to staple/pin guns.

HEY! I'm just the messenger. LOL

BUT I think this is a finish nail type application. With wood I think
that they think that no counter sink is necessary.

I think this could look good for laying down decking and or for a rustic
finish.

One industry that could use this is the coffin industry... Due to religious
standards some coffins cannot contain any metal. As such the assembly is
typically done with dowels. Even if they needed 2-3 times as many wooden
nails as dowels it would be quicker and cheaper.

Maybe a quarter mile? Only equal to an aluminum nail.

If it works like they say then it would be great for wood fences, the
slat's would not work loose from corrosion, wood shrinkage around the
nail, etc.

Sandable, stainable.

Would love to see a joint test with no glue.

Alright! Finishing up some of the last batch we made here, some with Kathy and some with friends. Tried a bunch of other recipes a few months ago, and still like the ones we started with the best.

Since this is tamale season pork will be $1 a pound (or close) soon. That means pork butts for the pit and a lot more sausage. I made some more link sausage last time and it was good, but not epic. When I hit on a really good recipe I will send it on. I will be trying to con my beer making buddy into doing the sausage making at his house so we can drink beer and smoke cigars (he has a small outdoor kitchen) all day while making/smoking the next batch.

An awful way to spend a day, no doubt.

Just thinking about it... 30# of sausage is a helluva lot of sausage! Did you finish off your last batch, or are you prepping for gifts?

Yeah! Kim added to make the spices stronger this time and feel it is
much better. And we went with a coarse grind. We mistakenly used the
finer grind the first time and the sausage was more like hot dog
consistency. 20 lbs.of breakfast sausage and 10 lbs. of Italian.
About 3-4 hours to make and package.

We picked up 3, 10 lb. pork shoulders for .99 per pound.

We were done by about 1:30 in the afternoon. I think my fingers got
frost bite. ;~)

We had about 3, 10 oz. packs left, we did give a few away over the past
few months.

Ah, good point. My grandmother thought playing cards was a sin. We
did nothing but play cards when we visited her (nothing else for us
kids to do).

My grandmother thought it was a sin if we *didn't* play cards.

Whist as group, Gin Rummy one-on-one. If she wasn't making pierogies,
she was playing solitaire.

My brothers and I are renting a house for a big family Christmas. I
can't wait to see their faces when I whip out Grandma's Michigan Rummy
board and a big jar of pennies.

ARE YOU POLISH? My son just married into a polish family and the
wedding was grand, steeped heavily in Polish tradition. Our family grew
exponentially. Her mother and father are one of 8 kids from each
family. I think they were all there. LOL

Out in Bandara, Texas, aka Bantucky. ;~)

Genetically, about 25¢ worth (Grandma). Another 25¢ is French Canadian
(Grandpa). The other half a buck is Italian from my Dad's side.

In practice, I'm just about all Italian. My family is originally from
Massachusetts, but I grew up in NYC with a bunch of Italian friends.

While we practiced a few Polish customs at Grandma's house (pierogies at
Easter and Christmas, oplatek on Christmas Eve [still do that]) my maternal
grandparents were pretty much "Americanized". My paternal Grandparents, on
the other hand, were old school Italians. Grandpa came to the US, started a
business, established himself and then went back to the old country to "find
a wife and bring her to America". I remember hanging out at the Italian Club
where the men drank port wine and played Bocce every Sunday after Mass.
