Hi,

In the next few weeks I need to lay about 20m^2 of 3/4" hard maple T&G
floorboards.

All was well and good until I (for the first time ever) was diagnosed as
having "Tennis Elbow" a couple of weeks ago.

I had envisaged fastening the flooring with a rented tool like this:

But now it seems I have the perfect excuse to purchase a powered nailer.
(YES!)

Can anyone recommend a nailer (brand/model) suited to this application? I
know I need to use 50mm nails at a 45 degree ish angle. The numerous types
of nailgun available are completely confusing. I had no idea there was such
a variety.

I'm inclined towards a generic pneumatic "framing nailer" (I have a
compressor).

Am I thinking along the right lines?
