after those guys in off topic made me cry i decided to repost in the correct forum.....
I recently bought the Hitachi 8 1/2 inch sliding compound miter saw ( it can cross cut a 2x12 and 45 a 2x8- not to mention the scream it lets out wakes all the neighbors on saturday mornings) and got a free hitachi router with a rebate. I looked the model up and they sell for around 120
so since i was also in the market for a nailgun i searched for a hitachi version of the paslode. I found a recondicitoned one from an authorized dealer for right around 160. I used it all last weekend and only had a couple of misfires (i think cold related, it was like 25 and the manual says its only reliable to 32).
Anyway, i love the fact that doing an additon for myself has allowed me to buy some many tools with out feeling guilty
