I have a co-worker who put in his birthday request for an "electric pinner" we can find tons of pneumatic pinners but not much in the way of electric except the low-end Arrow products you'd get at lowes or home depot.

(2) questions:

The first is obvious anyone know of a good "electric pinner" and where to get one quick.

Second is for an education on my part is there much difference in a "pinner" and a "brad nail gun" I know pins have small neglible heads and brads have a larger head. what are the other differences. i'm thinking the 18 guage PASLODE cordless brad nailer would suit just fine.

I apprcieate yall's help & input.

Phil, I think most pinners shoot 23ga pins, so they are significantly smaller than brads (18ga).

Buy him a small compressor to go with it, and he will have an ELECTRIC pinner. That is unless you buy a gas driven one. You could also check into the CO 2 bottles from Lowes to drive it.
