Just Posting To Brag About My New Toy!!!
Yesterday I picked up a Paslode Impulse framing nailer for $40.00!!! Like new in the case with owners manual, extra battery, spare fuel cells, and a bunch of nails. I was helping a friend move and the guy next door came over and knew I was a carpenter (and he's a compulsive gambler). He said he wanted $80.00, I offered $40.00. I took it out and tried it on my friends fence and it works like new. He accepted my $40.00 and I'm a very happy camper. This unit sells for about $650.00 here in Canada. Not a bad deal at all!!!

The worx,
Nice going! Instead of giving the poor guy some counciling about not gambling you throw him 40.00 bucks feed his addiction and get a cool tool. Shame on you.
