I am a homeowner, but a rather ambitious oneI have never used a nailer before, but I am considering getting oneThese are the projects I have in mind:1.) Attach baseboard(my most immediate need)2.) Replace some rotting wood siding trim with cement board hardie plank trim3.) Replace door casing4.) Install paper-backed insulation in atticI see a lot of deals coming up for Black Friday so I think now is the time to buy, but I'm not sure exactly what I needI'm afraid of getting something too cheap to do the job, or of getting something that works great for the next job but won't be suitable for the next projectI see a 59.99 Sears Evolv Black Friday deal, but is that too cheap to handle it all?I am wondering if I need to look for a particular psi, a particular type of nailer, or maybe I shouldn't try to use the same nailer for all the above projects??
if you haven't started yet your to late
Make sure that it is thoroughly thawed!! 6-7 hours in room temp waterGet the giblets outRinse out insideCoat with butter or oil (I use olive) and spices (oregano and salt for me)Heat oven to 325 FI use the broiler panI wrap the turkey in foil, leave a small opening, and put juice (I used Chai tea) in and outsidePlace in ovenMore juice added first and second hourDo three hoursTurn off oven, open door, and let cool 45 minCarve and serveI did it yesterday, a 12 pounder, ate some last night, very tender! Good luck!
The sears evolve that you mentioned is a brad nailer, this would be a thinner nail than a trim nailerThe compressor would be enough to power that nailer but I didn't find the specs on it with a quick searchAlthough it may work for the baseboard and door casing (trim nailer is better choice) it would not for the other two jobsThe paper face of the insulation gets stapled to the studs, but if you are putting it towards the ceiling you would just lay it in placeThe paper facing would go against the drywallIf there is already some insulation up there use the unfaced and install on top of the otherThe hardi-board siding would require a thicker nail with a larger head for holding power that would be corrosion resistant being it will be exposed to weather conditions, the brad nails would rust away in a few years and the siding would need to be redoneWow, that was like four questions for the price of oneYou are a bagain hunter.
