Using pin nailer to trim out plywood edges
I recently purchased a 23 guage pin nailer to hold 1/4" strips of
hardwood to edge plywood cabinets. I thought it would be a lot easier than bar clamps, and don't mind putting a dab of filler in after the glue sets up. However, I get the feeling that the pins do not hold well enough to apply pressure to get a tight joint. Anybody else using this method with better success, or do I just dump the nailer? Len |

Using pin nailer to trim out plywood edges
Dump the pin nailer and use better clamps.... I use Gross-Stabil edge clamps for all edging, the advantage is that they can be used one-handed. Here's the 3" version: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN//B000960K1E/awh They also make a 2" version and Bessey makes a replica, but I didn't see them on Amazon.
