Best DIY Pneumatic Nailer combo kit.?
I'm in the market to get a good Pneumatic nailer combo kit. This Christmas I received an battery powered DeWalt nailer. While I own numerous DeWalt power tools I don't think the battery powered Nailer can compete with a Pneumatic. I was wondering which combo it is the best bang for the buck. I want it to do smaller in-home duties like crown molding, base boards, and maybe fence repair...etc.
These are the companies that I'm comparing... DeWalt, Porter Cable, Bostitech. Any advise will be appreciated.
My framing nailer is Bostitch and all finish,brad and staplers are Porter Cable. We also use both Porter Cable and DeWalt air compressors. All of these are at least five years old and are used daily no problems with either brand. Bostitch and Porter Cable have goods buys on sets with compressor and two or three types of nailer's. Check out the box stores.
We also use a lot of DeWalt tools but not any pneumatic.

How Can I Pick A Tool?
If I want to go shopping, I want to go shopping for a new dress, not a drill. But I decided to buy my husband a tool for Christmas and I was very happy that I could get all the help I needed in this department from Black and Decker. A friend had suggested that the Black and Decker Firestorm tool combo kit would be the perfect Christmas gift, so I decided to go for it.
I decided to go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving, black Friday, and as soon as I talked to the salesperson at Sears, I knew that my friend was right, the Black and Decker Firestorm tool combo kit was the ideal gift. And since this day was full of wonderful sales, the price was great at less than $170. I had been thinking about the Craftsman drill that had a trim saw and flashlight that cost about $160, but now I could get a tool with so many more features for almost the same price.
This tool kit is a handyman's dream. The plastic case I carried out of the store had a huge assortment of cordless tools and accessories, all at a fraction of what they would have cost individually. I had a hard time carrying this big heavy kit, but I knew it would be worth the effort once I saw my husband open his present.
Of course, I had to hide this great gift for almost a month until Christmas arrived. I hid it carefully, but my husband pokes into everything in the house, so I just hoped he would not find it before the holidays.
All of the struggle to get the tool in the car and hidden for all that time was well worth it when he opened the present. He was absolutely thrilled with his new toy.
The one feature of the Black and Decker Firestorm collection that my husband finds a use for almost every day is the cordless drill. He also loves the reciprocating saw and the trim saw so much that he looks around for stuff to cut. I have to keep everything out of his way. The kit also comes with a powered screwdriver and a flashlight. We found out the hard way how important it is to have a flashlight around when you are doing construction. It would have helped us find lots of hidden wires when we were in the middle of our home remodeling.
The only problem is that my husband wants to use this tool every chance he gets, so he has no patience waiting for the battery to recharge. So now he has to plan his projects a little better so he does some cutting or drilling and then gives it a rest while he plans or takes a break.
This is by far the best gift I have given my husband, and I don't know if I am going to be able to outdo myself next year.
