Today the lights start on the
side because I went to the
hardware shop for most of the
morning
The main thing for me next time
would be to nail all the joys
that are here
So I went to rent a nail gun,
which is here, and bought some
nails and a gas bottle that
goes with it to power the nail
gun
Pretty interesting to do that
tomorrow
And what's gonna start to do
really now, the first nail, is
that here we're actually
missing a post
Here is a post there, and
missing a post against the old
terrace
I bought as well an extra post
100 by 100
Always this treated pine post
that's cheap, 25$ for this 2.4m
I'm gonna cut the 1.3m here
And I have to come up with a
little bit of a solution to
access it
And that will do the job for
today
Right, one day later, and
change of plan
I couldn't make that tool work,
I don't think it's working,
sometimes a nail gun I think is
a bit temperamental
A gas nangle, so I'm at the
back of the shop here
I showed advice, they can't fix
it, they can't replace it
I've got everything, I've got
the battery charge overnight, I
put a gas bottle inside here
Lots of nails, nails like that,
a 75mm long nail
I bought a box of 100$ and the
rental will be 40$
But it's not working, so I'll
return everything, I'm gonna go
old school
I'm gonna buy a nice hammer, a
few nails, and a bit like that
That's it, alright, see you
later
So actually I went to rent
another nail gun from a
different hardware shop
There's a local hardware shop
next to me, much better
This one is working, and I'm
saving a lot of time compared
to hand nailing
Same nail, same brand, should
be the older model
And I think when we get through
that, we're gonna get through
all this choice in an hour or
two
Yeah, so that's it, keep going
on that
Right, so now I'm done with the
nail gun job
I'm gonna move to something
else
But before that, I saw I
recorded a little bit, did more
detail about nail gun job
So both of those kind of nails,
so that's probably a good brand
in Australia, personally
Those nails are galvanised,
that means they're good for
external usage
A bit more expensive, that's a
box of 1000 nails, cost me $100
And in that box, so you've got
two things, obviously the nails
themselves
They're all attached with a
soft piece of paper that will
automatically be removed on
your fire
40 in a pack, then 1000 in the
box
And with this box come as well,
the gas bottle
So that tells you a bit more
how this is working
Remove the, yep, like that
The gas bottle sits there, so
this is gas bottle
So I really think it's actually
like methane or something that
can burn
Because the way it works, it's
not compressed here, it's
explosion
There's an explosion chamber
into that, I'm gonna propel the
nail that direction
So of course, safety measure,
apply, but with remove
First the nails are loaded
there
I should put it left in this
batch, you first put the nails
like that
Block them, then the gas bottle
Those nails are 75mm long and 3
mm wide
This is what's recommended for
this kind of usage I'm doing
And now, I've got a piece of
food here for you to taste, it
's simple
The way it works is you've got
to trigger it easily, but at
the same time this thing has to
be pulled
And then again it will fire
So I'll show you like that, it
's simple
Nothing, the battery, put
safety, didn't put the battery
That's the last thing you do,
put the battery in
And now, put it again, like
that
Alright, I'm done, I'm gonna
remove the battery
I've got a little bit of the
smell of gas, like methane when
you do that
And that's it, it goes through
all the, this is soft wood, it
goes basically into the treated
pine
A bit more difficult than fine
to go into this kind of hard
wood here
And the result is, I'll show
you a couple of things here,
like that
The nail is in the wood, a
little bit outside, but that
should be alright
And that's it, so now I'm gonna
finish the bracing.
