Testing And Talking About The Milwaukee Nailer And Stapler!
What happens here
The presenter introduces the Milwaukee M18 Fuel 18-gauge narrow crown stapler as his most recent and favorite acquisition. He explains that it fills a gap left by the finishing nailer, especially when working with materials like fake brick, faux shiplap, or wire mesh that are prone to over-penetration with nails. The stapler uses 5/8-inch and 1-1/2-inch staples, which are much cheaper than finishing nails. He demonstrates loading staples and highlights its ability to 'grab' the material, providing a strong hold for various objects, including temporary tacking of projects. He notes that the stapler offers a more secure hold for certain applications where a nailer might not be suitable.
Goal: Understand the features and benefits of the Milwaukee M18 Fuel 18-gauge narrow crown stapler.
