I have seen a tool someone used to attach PT 1x form work to concrete
walls.
It drives a nail into the wood and concrete and the nail has a plastic
orange gear looking like tail attached to it. I wonder what that tool
is,
is it a nailer?


Sounds like a Ramset-

You can buy: Ramset 22 Caliber Single Shot Trigger Activated Powder
Actuated Tool - RS22 * Liquid Nails and a Ramset will do the job. Is
this just block walls or a solid poured wall?

HD had a hammer activated one for 20 bucks or so.

Block wall in most areas and solid poured walls in a few other locations.
Yes I think it is a ramset. For some reason I have always assumed it's an
air tool of some sort. So I can go with gas tools or air tools?
