Do I need a compressor to use this micro pinner?Can I use nails shorter than 1/2 inch?

The pinner has a sliding lever for different size brads, the smallest setting is 1/2in. Yes you need a compressor.

I have one of those Porter Cable compressors I got for a brad nailer, and the Critter works fine with it. You won't need anything like 90 PSI, either. If you use too much pressure, the spray will be very dry and dusty.

I don't use pins that long. I use old fashioned thumb tacks that are a little less than 1/2 inch long. I also use push pins that are about 1/2 inch. I ran out of short pins and used a couple of pins that were 1 inch long, but I didn't stick them all the way in because they were too long, but they did hold the items on the board. If you have a choice, I suggest the 1/2 inch range.

I don't know about all that stuff, I'm new with my nailer so I bought bostitch nails. So far I've used 2 inch and 1 1/4 both are great with no problems. If you ry them the worse case is they jam and you have to get them out, go for it!

I've used small pliers or a small claw hammer. Be careful when pulling that the direction of pull follows the angle the nail makes with the wall to avoid unnecessary damage to the wall. If you're careful and the pin is still straight, you can use it again.

Min air pressure 60 PSI Max air pressure 100 PSI. nail is extremely small good for holding parts while glue sets up .To anchor parts X nail with two nails at an angle to keep the parts from working off the fasteners.

I am not sure how much psi as my compressor is too small for it. If you have the air you could use any surface grit or polish

I am unsure what a pin nailer might be. It must be a regional term. Brads, I guess could be called "pin-nails" It will handle 18 guage brads from 3/8" to 2 inches. Mine is a fantastic machine that is easily unjammed should one occur and has very few misfires. Hope this helps

I would guess not. You need to check the continuous air requirements of the sprayer and compare to the compressor. This is great for nail guns which need small bursts of air, and even for that it needs to cycle more often.

I would look at a pin nailer instead, something powered by a compressor. I got one of these Roberts staplers and it work for one hour.

It's great for cabinets. It doesn't need a compressor. You need a finer tip though

The N62FNK-2 15 Gauge. will hold 130 nails (1.25inches to 2.5 inches in length). So you can do a lot of nailing without reloading.

I would assume you could if your nail gun did not require very large constant volumes of air. I had a contractor use this size compressor for his nail gun to put on roof shingles and it kept up very well. This is a very handy, portable compressor.

I am using a small pancake compressor which has a 5 gallon capacity and will deliver 100psi. This is more than enough to power the pinner. I also use a ten gallon remote tank to use the pinner (and other guns) wherever I wish to use it.

I should work fine. I have a small Porter-Cable 2 gallon "pancake" compressor and it powers the nailer without any problems.

yes. the 23 gauge nails are micro (headless). great price. takes 1/2" - 1" length
