Tools & Hardware : Bostitch HP118K 23 Gauge 1/2-Inch to 1-3/16-Inch Pin Nailer
Rating: 
- Great Deal
I received this pin nailer as a birthday gift and have used it mostly for nailing very small pieces together for children's toys. I am very impressed with the ease of use and smooth handling. I had read other reviews about it not fully seating the pins but never found this to be the case. I drove 1" pins into red oak and they went fully below the surface. When set to the lighter setting they did protrude but that was expected.
Care must be used with the trigger arrangement but this is common for these machines. I found myself almost firing into the air when moving from one position to another.
Good price and good range of pins driven.
Well satisfied and would do it again.

Execution of the nailer is very good and hopefully the make=quality.

- Problem with the first one shipped
The first nailer shipped to me had an air leak and had to be returned. The replacement was received with no problems. The second one worked just fine and came with good instruction and an assortment of pin sizes. I would have given it five stars except for the problems with the first unit.
Rating: - just so so
I use this for two reasons.
1 so as not to split wood with a larger 18ga brad.
2 for a less noticable hole.
The short comings of this pinner is its lack of power in the depth drive.
It only barley sets the pin. which makes it tough to fill. I've often had to get out a nail set because its flush with the surface, which makes an even larger hole.
