You know, I’ve always wanted a pin nailer. There’s something appealing about being able to use teeny tiny 23 gauge headless nails in a project where you don’t want large holes to appear in a finished surface. But I haven’t yet had a real need for one.
Today, 2/5/2016, Home Depot is having a Deal of the Day on a couple of nailers, one of which is Ridgid’s 23 gauge pin nailer.
This pinner appears to be very highly regarded in user reviews. It can handle headless pins 5/8″ to 1-3/8″ in length.
Other common air nailer features include an in-handle air filter, muffler to reduce operating noise, dual-action trigger system, removable non-marring nose pad, and swivelling quick-connect fitting.

I always thought that, when the time came, I would get a Hitachi pin nailer ($84 via Amazon), or maybe Bosch ($119 via Amazon), or a more traditional brand such as Grex or Senco.
But for just under $50, I might be buying this Ridgid pinner before the day is out.
Also on sale today is this Husky mini palm nailer, which can drive any type of hand driven nail.
Basically, it’s a little pneumatic hammer that can come in handy when you need to drive nails in tight spaces. Or maybe you just want to save a bit of elbow grease on a quick task.
The Husky mini palm nailer has a rubber grip to reduce vibrations, and a magnetic nose that helps hold nails in place for more accurate starts.

A couple of brands offer something similar. You can find mini palm nailers from Freeman, Senco, and Porter Cable over at Amazon, and other models too, for $25 to $50.
Milwaukee also offers an M12 cordless palm nailer, for those that don’t want to bother with an air compressor and hose.
There are 2 other products on sale today – a NuMax nailer kit, and HDX nailer kit, but I didn’t think there would be enough interest to mention them. You can check out Home Depot’s Special Buy of the Day here.
