I got the Plaslode about 15 years ago for framing work on the house/worlshop/shed (the Fe$tool of nail guns)... was just a tad too big for brads and forced life into the Ryobis.... the blue stapler telegraphs its age..
The palm nailer is great to get into tight spots. During another moment of weakness, while wading through what I refer to SWMNBO as my "shoe shop", I purchased a Milwaukee palm nailer... got sucked in by the skin only version and the hype on the box. None were actual on display to confirm overall size until I unboxed it and tried it. In reality, wasn't that much more compact than a nail gun... and like me, only a single shot. Was still a tad easier on the veranda rails without coming in from the sides without lugging a compressor/hose around.
However, this is about the Stiletto for hand jobs. Just interesting to convey the force it delivered vs the weight.... and introduce diversified products to others.... It also gives me an alibi for claiming hand tool usage.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
