True, yet I remember much gnashing of teeth about Norm's
use of brads as a method of clamping some glued joints
(often joints that would be difficult to clamp).


I think a lot of that was because the brads were visible in
the finished piece, and the joint could have been clamped
if Norm had wanted to try (and, of course, that most folk
doing cabinetry don't keep a loaded air-nailer at the ready
for such tasks).
