Home Improvement : Bostitch N62FNK-2 1-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 15-Gauge Angled Finish Nailer

The first time you pick up the Bostitch N62FNK-2, you might wonder if such a lightweight finish nailer (it weighs just 3.8 pounds, the lightest in its class) can really get the job done. But once you pull the trigger and feel the 400 in./lbs. of driving power at your fingertips, those doubts will disappear and you'll wonder how you ever did without it before. Rugged and sturdy enough for virtually any application, the N62FNK-2 delivers fast, clean, accurate results using finish nails from 1 to 2-1/2 inches in length. An oil-free engine means no unsightly stains on your work--a definite plus--and no need for messy lubrication, an even bigger positive. Tool-free maintenance and depth control only add to the allure. --Carl Thress

Home Improvement : Bessey SVH400XL SVH Flooring and Clamping System

Bessey SVH Clamping System,

April 7, 2000

By	Kevin Nolan, K & S Woodworking (Noblesville, Indiana) - See all my reviews

Being a professional flooring installer, I have had the opportunity to try numerous laminate flooring clamps. The Bessey SVH Flooring and Clamping System is the only one on the market to have a strap length of 24'. Competitors' clamps are normally only 18'. The design of the clamp ensures that you will never chip or mar the flooring surface while providing more clamping pressure than you will ever need. The thumb screw on the front of the clamp virtually eliminates the need for spacers around the perimeter of the room. Overall,I highly recommend the Bessey SVH Flooring and Clamping System for both professionals and do it yourselfers.

Home Improvement : Porter-Cable FCN200 Pnuematic Flooring Cleat Nailer

Great, product, but don't run it out of nails,

February 18, 2006

By	Steve Felker (Phoenix, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

So far, this has proven to be well worth every penny. It works flawlessly every time, with one exception: make sure you never try to fire the last nail. If it doesn't fall out, it will fire in an unexpected way. I wasn't paying attention to the nail stock, and it fired the last nail just under the finished face of the wood, ruining it. What a pain it was to have to dig out that piece of wood and replace it. I am much more careful now! The foot has a thick teflon (or similar material) layer attached so it never scratches the wood, and even the alignment blade seems to be pretty forgiving when you miss the edge and drag it over a bit of the surface of the wood.

Overall, this is a great product, and I would recommend it to anyone installing wood flooring, although I wish it came with a case...
