Brad Nailer Best Practices
Hey friends! I’m working on a DIY project nailing some small (3/4” thick) pieces of molding to my wall for some texture. I haven’t used a brad nailer before so I have some questions: What size nail should I use? I read online 2” nails, but when I was testing in my workshop, it felt like it extended very far out of the piece. Is 2” overkill? Electric safety. Am I safe as long as I don’t nail ~ 6” away from any sockets? Am I correct in assuming I shouldn’t the whole vertical section 6” section left and right of the socket? Any other tips are greatly appreciated! Thanks! submitted by /u/ExpertBeginner5 [link] [comments]
