Makita AG125 2-15/16-Inch to 4-7/8-Inch Pneumatic Nail Driver Review

I've always wondered if someone would come out with a tool such as this one. I knew that there were palm nailers, but this really does the trick when you want to get down and dirty. It is easier to grip, and the rubber on the handle is very comfortable. It has a depth adjustment with six different settings, which works better than simply adjusting the psi on your compressor. Overall, this is a great unit.

The built-in magnet on this Pneumatic Nail driver ensures proper loading and alignment so you can drive nails from 2-15/16 to 4-7/8 inches with confidence. The quick dial adjustment has six settings for precise control of nail depth, and there's a contoured hand and conforming rubber grip for comfort. The built-in air filter prevents dust or foreign matter from entering the tool and the rubber bumper protects the tool housing. A 360-degree exhaust system directs exhaust away from the operator and the tool hook can be installed on either side of the driver. All this, in a tool that weighs just 2.9 lbs.. Your purchase includes a hex wrench, safety glasses, and an oil supply.

Hyde Tools 09170 Vac-Pole Sander Without Pole Review

Having done a couple thousand square feet of drywall finishing the old fashioned way (coughing up dust as I sanded), I was hoping for something inexpensive that would maybe take half of the dust out of the air. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Dust Dog does much more, sucking away almost all of the dust created from sanding. No longer will I emerge from the work area looking like a ghost.
The unit is simple, and the female connection for the pole is sturdy. Some minor drawbacks: while not made of cast iron or anything, the unit is heavier than a plain sanding block, and you also have to dangle the vacuum hose around with you, so you will tire faster when sanding, especially on higher walls and ceilings. Additionally, the "suction control valve" does not have a tremendous amount of adjustability, but I didn't notice that sanding was any harder due to the block sticking to the sanding surface. Lastly, because the vacuum hose dangles off of the bottom of the universal joint, you can't rotate the sanding block around as easily or in as many positions as a plain pole sander. On a positive note, grasping the unit at the universal joint is a relatively comfortable grip to do close-up hand-sanding instead of using the pole.
That being said, I'm pleased with an inexpensive means of dustless drywall sanding. I have mine hooked up to a run-of-the-mill Ridgid shop vac without any special filter, and while I do need to shake the filter out relatively frequently, it does just fine keeping the dust in the vacuum.
