: I just purchased a compressor and nail gun for some home remodeling jobs.
: Does anyone use air tools or any sort for building? sanders, routers, etc?
: Maybe I need more tools :)

I found it very easy to hold the form in one hand and shoot a few nails into the supporting block with the other hand. No wiggle or wobble that way. I suppose you could get a air powered staple gun if you wanted to...
