Exactly what type of nailer (framing, finishing or brad) are you using? I
own nearly the full line of Senco nailers and have no problems with
toenailing, however it does require holding the gun FIRMLY against the board
your nailing into. If the gun is not held firmly enough, often the gun will
bounce when it is fired causing the nail to stick out. Also, the "angle of
attack" may influence how the nail is set. 45-60 degrees or so seems to wok
best with my guns. --dave

I am looking for a nailer that I will use it for nothing but
toe-nailing two pieces of woods together (as a way to clamp them
together). I already have a set of nailers; but somehow I cannot use
them for toe-nailing (the nail will stick out by 1/8" or more).
Therefore, I need a nailer that can do toe-nailing.

Because it is a single purpose tool that I probably won't use often, I
want it to cost very little. I am looking at the nailers from Harbor
Freight, and they have some very low cost nailers (as low as $20). But
I have no idea which one can do toe-nailer properly. Can someone tell
me where I can find a low cost nailer that can do toe-nailer?

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
