    Flooring Nailer Re-visited

    for bamboo they recommended using staples. They said nails tended to split the tongues off sometimes. To be honest, I didn't look at Lowes and probably should have, you also get 5% off with the Lowes Card. LL had 3 levels of bamboo - new growth - cheapest, but had a lot of negative reviews on...
