Milwaukee Nail Guns

[Ryan]

I was just looking at the new Milwaukee nailers. From what I've seen they are copies of the Ridgid nailers, which makes sense, considering Milwaukee and Ridgid are now owned by the same companies. The brad nailer looks nice, but I don't know how good it would be compared to my PC gun. I can't understand why you would by the Milwaukee, and get a 5 year warranty, when you could buy the Ridgid and get a lifetime warranty. Maybe the Mil. has better internal components? Just my ideas here, does anyone have any experience with these nail guns?

Ryan,

Off topic but did you ever get the lathe you were looking at? How is everything going?

Haha, actually that lathe is still sitting in the tool room at school, unplugged and collecting dust. I'm about to go crazy waiting for the thing to go to auction. Other than that things are going pretty well, I finished up Carpentry I at school, now this semester I'm in Masonry I, which should be interesting! How are things in your neck of the woods?
