I have been nailing away on our frame today ans occassionaly I get what looks like a miss fire but they knock in with a hammer ok. I thought it might be bounce but it seems not to be as it happens on realy solid parts. Any ideas? PS Gun is a Dewalt electric framing nailer and the nails are 50mm long.

Our frame is ordered and I still need a nail gun or two - recommendations would be great. Paslode 350/360 seems the obvious choice and should sell easily when finished but If I'm missing other options please say! Should I be considering air guns and a compressor set up as it'll only be used on one site so less of an issue with mobility etc? Thanks

Following my recent slight change to the thickness of the cladding battens in part of my wall buildup (which has saved me buying new windowsills!) I'll need to find new nails as well, as the 70mm ones I already have are going to punch through and neatly poke holes in the breather membrane. Looking for 15 degree flat collated coil nails, stainless steel, pref ring shank, anything from 40-60mm would do the job. Will need about 1000 of them. Just curious about where people source these, as the combination of stainless and coil makes them hard to track down. When I bought the 70mm ones I got a cracking deal on eBay- something like 6000 nails for £40. But the best I can find so far for these smaller nails is about £12 per 350 nails, plus postage, which is way more expensive. Am I missing anywhere obvious to buy these? I can find huge boxes (e.g. 16,000) or single coils, nothing inbetween.
