: I was looking at my 23 gauge micro pinner tonight and wondered if
: it would be useful in "stapleless" stripping? Instead
: of having to clamp and wait could you blow a pin into the row
: below and move on as quick as with staples? Could you even toe
: nail into the forms if needed and then clip it off and sand it
: when doing the inside?? Just thinking out loud I have yet to go
: stapleless. Any down sides you can think of?? Travis

Well I would think you would have to pull the pins out. Otherwise you couldn't pull the finished work off the forms. A pin nailer will put the pin below the surface. At least with a staple you can get a hold of it to pull it out. In the end it's one pin hole vesus two???

I'm going staple less. A few strips every evening rather than an all day Saturday job.
