    So, I am on the process of trying to side my house, I have the finish nailer to do all the trim, but I don't have a roofing nailer, and with Cassi quitting her job in two months I am trying to spend as little money as possible, so I am trying to borrow any tools I need rather than buy like normal.

    So, does anyone have an air powered roofing nailer?

    Im aware of that but with my always changing work schedule I don't know when I'll have time too use it that's why I was going to borrow one so I wouldn't have top hunt one down each time I am able to do a little work

    Just a suggestion, but you might be able to score an inexpensive one at a pawn shop. Everyone I have ever been in seem to have a lot of contractor tools...usually all beat to $h!t, but if it works and the price is right who cares what it looks like.

    Good call, never thought about that. . . and I'll have to chat with my buddy who is a roofing contractor with 5 crews, maybe he'll have one for sale
