  • Review:

    Tacwise state that this Master Nailer 191EL is for use on softwood, hardwood, plasterboard, MDF, tongue and groove
    flooring / panelling, garden furniture and trellis work, door and window assembly.

    I’ve personally used this nail gun for putting up door architrave, building furniture, making shelves and stapling foil insulation into the loft. It’s incredibly useful for small jobs where you could do with a spare hand.

    This nailer is not a site tool so don’t expect it to fire six inch nails into concrete, but it does a very good job firing small brads and staples into softwood and MDF. Perfect hold until the PVA glue goes off.

    I’ve used the 1000 nails and staples supplied with the gun and it’s not jammed once. Consumables are easily found in the big DIY stores and if you hunt around on the internet some bargains can be had.

    My only gripe is that the rubber nose protectors have a habbit of breaking or falling off all together. There are two supplied but I was quicly down to one. I haven’t found where I can buy replacements yet but I’ve not looked very hard. Apart from that this is a tool which once used you’ll wonder how you ever did without it. Perhaps my christmas list will include a large gun for large timber projects, but there’s always the hire shop for those.
