this is a real question I have a laborador retrieve that gets long nails. Could I use it on her???

I don't see why not. The speed is adjustable, but it does make a sound that your dog may be sensitive to. Also she would feel quite a bit of vibration, so she may not tolerate that. Just a couple of thoughts.

Cutting the nails can put the pressure to them that the dog does not like. You have to get them use to the sound and sometimes some dogs act like they are getting tickled with these.

Yes. I actually bought mine for use on both me and my Chihuahua. There is some vibration and the noise frightens him, but your dog may be fine with it since he's bigger. It works really well.

Yes. Make sure you test the nail depth on scrap wood first. Otherwise, there is NO better way to go.

Yes it's made for acrylic and gel nails. You wouldn't need this for your regular nails, too rough.

I do not know the answer. I purchased a smaller nailer to handle the finer work..

the mouth of the toe nail clipper is large in my opinion. works great on large toe nails. the finger nail clipper can, also be used on toe nails. i love them because they are sturdy and better than any i have ever tried.

THEY say that HITACHI NAILS ONLY but I've checked from the local (Finland) manual and it says there that use only nails that meet the dimensions stated in the table below - HITACHI is not mentioned there. I think it is a liability statement for the USA only. I'll use any nails in mine as long as those meet the dimensions in the table.

I don't think so. The head of the nail would have to be less then about 3/8" Dia. to fit into the small hole in the nailer.

If you cut the fimo canes thick enough I would think you can. Im not positive, ive only ever used them for nail art.

It looks like you can but I just about ripped a nail off trying. Probably need a screwdriver or knife to pry it apart.

It's larger than the usual fingernail clippers, but I see no reason why you couldn't use it. It might be a bit trickier to get a clean cut.

It should be perfect for this type of application; I know of nothing better, also there are many options for types of nails, i.e., ringshank, stainless, coated, etc.

It's going to depend on the design of the nail. As a seller I couldn't guarantee it. I don't stock the pin nails to test. If you send some I would be happy to test them.Rich W. RHW Surplus Sales

I am not sure, but some of the reviews states they have used these nails. You may have a defective nailer. Sorry I can't be more help.

I have used one to two inch nails. I believe the nailer could handle anything down to one fourth inch.
2217576
Absolutely... The one I bought has a reset issue, but otherwise works great with up to 2inch nails. I load a half rack of nails instead of a full rack and that seems to help. I bought mine for $120. Well worth it!!!

This should do the job no problem use the 2" nails T or the L shaped nails .

It does not matter. Either 21 degree or 22 degree nails will work just fine. This nailer has about a 3 degree tolerance on nail angle. Use either 21 or 22 degree nails - you won't be able to tell the difference. If you still have doubts, call porter cable customer service, they will telly you the same thing. p.s. buy this nailer! it works great!!
