I love it! I could see it working. Probably equal performance if not better than my Arrow staple guns. And with staple guns mine get pounded with tar paper on roofing that gum up. This is less abusive and cleaner.
PS That boy could use to pound some nails to build up that upper body lol

This site is terrible in general. I stopped coming because I could open the server too often. I would click my bookmark to come here and then it failed.
It doesnt zoom in to read from the phone. I posted several things in the tool thread which it never gets posted but says I made duplicate posts.
So I dont know…..happening again this morning

The square looks clever, but on site these things take drops. I would think that arm extension will get bent.

Forgot about the gold Bond option.
Been using tea tree oil on my hands and feet for over 5 months to try and restore my nails.
It’s better but….. oral anti fungal was not appealing. Messes up your health.

They are, I bought another pair but they are sitting. Afraid to aggravate the matter.
At 49 I have never had a problem like that before and the sweating was concentrated on the toe under the composite.
I have been meaning to investigate better sick alternatives.

I thought I found a new favorite work boot in Keen. The Pittsburgh with composite toe.
Most comfortable and durable I have owned unfortunately the composite toe gave me a toe fungus from sweating. Im afraid to wear them now.
That is not easy to get rid of and come back super fast.

So since I picked your brains I wanted to follow up with the outcome.
I did build it to the 12 x 12 for material efficiency and explained to the owner the possibility of water creep leaving the perimeter.
For now it seems to be working fine.
Given the price limitations on it He has to be happy
