For the most part I preferred to use this setter rather than my other nail sets for the L-Nail, but I do think that it could have been designed much better to prevent it from slipping off the nail head.
this item is a waste of money I found a large size center punch worked much better at 1/4 of the price.
The staple setter was a big help with all the problems I have had with the Bostitch Floor Runner. It works great setting the staples and is very handy with removing bent staples.
I used this tool, while installing Heart pine 3/4 " tongue and groove. It is well made and it works. Even with a pneumatic nail gun,with the air pressure turned all the way up ,some nails still had to be set with this tool.If you are laying really hardwood, Oak,Heart Pine etc. and you are using a L or T nail this tool is a must have.
Like the header says this is a must have tool if you install or plan on installing T&G hardwood flooring. I know some people who use a regular screwdriver for this task, but that is dangerous as most screwdrivers are made of hardned steel and are likly to chip and possibly cause injury to yourself, or someone else. there are times when the flooring "cleat" just does not set all the way, and it will need a little persuasion. This is just the tool to do it.
