Would you use this for a framing/finish nail gun?

Yes this hose will indeed work and would possibly be considered overkill if that is all you intend to use it for.

I'm not sure, I'm using mine currently for a air hose, to fill up tires at my convince/gas station.

I have used this for a lot of trim and love it. As far as shoe molding goes you may want a smaller gauge. This 18 gauge may split it. Since this is the only nail gun I have, I would use it, but be cautious.

yes, but it is a finish nail gun, i would use construction adhesive on the back of the osb to make sure it stays put for a long time, or use 1 1/4" screws if you want it to be removable...

1.5" nails will not work with this gun. You need a positive placement gun for the hanger nails. The only framing nailer I know of that also does 1.5" positive placement nails is the Bostitch:BOSTITCH F21PL Round Head 1-1/2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer with Positive Placement Tip and Magnesium Housing

Yes, this is probably the perfect choice for that type of project. It is very quiet...you probably won't even hear it run if you're up on a roof. It has 2 hose hook ups with an adjustable output pressure control and wheels to roll around. Most nail gun type air compressors are in the 3-5 gallon size so this gives you a little more capacity at 10 gallons. It is so quiet that you could run it indoors and be ok. It seems to be of good quality too. I would highly recommend this product.

Q1 - I use 3 1/4 inch (10d, I think) for framing ... works great. Q2 - This nailer is plenty good for the home DIY person and absolutely will handle your outdoor shed. Mine seems to work best at 90-95 psi. I am not sure it would hold up in production framing, but I haven't had one problem with mine. Take the time to "get to know" your nailer so that you aim straight, and don't split studs from getting too close to the edge.

Yes it will. Absolutely. I have used it extensively with a brad nailer. Would also power a framing nailer.

I used it with a framing nailer (Hitachi NR83A2S) and the compressor was able to keep up quite well. However, with only 4gal capacity, running 2 framing nailers simultaneously might be a stretch.

I would not recommend it unless u are using stencils and not fine detail work. This gun is made to do its best work at a higher psi than the plastic guns. So in order to use this gun for nails the pressure would be to low and you wouldnt get the nice paint spray but a kinda runny drip.

This gun uses several different sizes of hitachi nails. I used some 2 1/4", 3" and 3 1/2" in my deck project. The gun worked flawlessly. Importantly, though, is the level of you expertise, the size of your air tank, etc. to adequately answer your query. On first thought, yes; however experience level could mitigate that.

I have personally run framing nail sizes from 2 1/2" to 3 1/2". It may stretch a bit more than that.

I bought nails on Amazon to go with it for cheap. And I'm pretty sure it would work for building a deck we used it with treated lumber to make 3 garden boxes and a sandbox with lid and it was great. Hope this helps

This is only a finish nailer. It's for doing small carpentry projects like birdhouse etc... you could use it for trim work also but that's about it. Building a shed would require a framing nailer. As for an air compressor I wouldn't get anything smaller than a 4 lb compressor. Anything lower will constantly run to keep up with the demand.

Ive used a framing nailer with this compressor while framing a deck, and it works well, but I would want something larger for a major construction job. It will not maintain pressure when being used at a high continuous rate.

I use the 6 gal Porter Cable from Home Depot. Works great for small projects. I wouldn't use it for rapid fire nailing. You need a bigger tank for that. I get maybe 5 shots before the compressor kicks on.

No, this is a finish nailer. I would use screws whenever possible as nails always back out

it will drive 2/12" finish nails without hesitation. Fencing may require framing nails which would be another tool
