Questions for Carpenters/ Joiners


flatpack

Recommended Posts

I'm a carpenter who is moving over from the UK in August. I've swapped all my 110v tools to 240v over the last few months.

After my van was broken into I found out that Paslode nail guns are different in the UK to those that are sold in Oz. It's something t do with how the gas connects to the gun and that Oz gas will not fit UK nail guns. Is this the same for the 2nd fix pin guns?

Any other things that I may of overlooked with regards to power tools?

Hi m8

 

Ive been advised to take everything you have got if you have the room of course I,m taking all my 110 tools and a couple of Trany,s

my bro in law gave a lot away before he went and wished he had taken everything even nails and screws

Ye know what you mean all my stuff nearly new had garage done over 12 months ago, just looked on ebay au for paslode nails loads of 2.8 mm for sail so looks like you can get nails over there

 

I've been buying and selling second hand and pretty much paid out what I got in so all in all it was like swapping. Had my van done a few weeks back, the ****ers got a Festool router that I'd bought 2 days earlier for £900. £2.5k gone in 60 seconds, insurance are being arses about it too.

 

With regards to Paslode, I've spoke to Paslode and the guns here are the same as the old model there so nails and gas will be available for a good while yet!
