Bought a finish gun
 
Last night, I went to Lowes and picked up a Senco Finishpro35 gun that also
came with an 18gauge stapler SLS15 for $160.00. I think I got a good price
for both (did I??).

Beginner question... the stapler can drive 1in staples. What do you guys
use the stapler for ??

Thank you.

Installing 1/4" plywood underlayment over 3/4" subfloor. Assembling
rabbetted 1/2" birch ply drawer boxes. Putting backs on casework. Making
up quick jigs. Repairing my work sneakers. Some small mouldings where
pullout is a concern (screen beads).

I bought the same combo last year. Another reply gave some common uses for
the stapler, so i'm just going to put in my 2cents and say you made a good
choice. I do quite a bit of finish carpentery and the gun (well, both guns)
have performed very well. The only thing i've noticed is that sometimes
(using generic nails) the gun will fire two nails when it reaches the end of
one clip and starts another. I think when another clip is added the lead
head ends up underneath the head on the last nail of the other clip and it
fires two.
Anyhow, as a precaution, you may want to watch this if you are putting a
nail in a place where it could cause grief. I usually wait until it
completely runs out of nails to reload, or just remove the last few and put
in a new clip. dave

I have the same combo but I paid almost $40 more than you did and
thought I was getting a good price. The stapler for me was just an
added bonus as I got the gun with a lot of trim work in mind. But I
ended up using the stapler before I used the nailer when I had to
install some 3/8 inch plywood sheets for a new ceiling on my patio
roof. I used the 1" staples and they worked great. They will not
pull through thin wood like brads would. I have since found the need
to pull out the staple gun on several other occasions so I'm glad I
have it.
