What is the difference between a brad nailer and a finish nailer. and does
one hold wood peices better than the other.

I have found that you will need both, but 3 is better. I have 3 PC
nailers which have a range from 5/8 to 2 1/2. I like to use the
smallest (BN100?) because it handles easily. For crown you have
to have the 2.5 incher at least but it's sort of clumsy, so the
2 incher comes in handy too.

Now I'm looking at the 1/2" pin nailer...never ends you know!
