Palm Nailers (again)

[Farrell]

It's been a while since I've pounded pins, but I think somewhere in the 90 
to 100 psi range. My compressor will pump up to 125 psi - and that makes my 
Danair nailer much too aggressive. As you lower the pressure, the nailer 
slows down a bit, until you get to a pressure where it barely works - I keep 
the pressure just a bit above that point and seem to be able to control it 
quite well.
