My husband and I have bought solid hardwood to do our upstairs (approx 900 sq ft). We need to get a compressor and a nailer. We do not want to rent because we want to take our time doing it (over a couple days/week)..and renting is expensive. So here is the predicament: What kind of compressor and Nailer do we buy?
We want to use the compressor for other things, obviously, so it needs to have a good PSI right? what else should we look for?
Also, for a nailer, since we will only be using it for one or two projects, could we buy a cheapo one off ebay? Like this one: NEW HARDWOOD FLOORING CLEAT NAILER & WOOD FLOOR STAPLER on eBay.ca (item 330483361361 end time 17-Oct-10 21:58:00 EDT)
We just need one that will get the job done... not one that will last throughout time, since we plan to live here for quite a while.
Your help would be greatly appreciated
