Grumbler in Training
Hello All,
I am hoping that someone can give me some ideas on what to try differently in order to get perfect corners with my new v-nailer.
I purchase an AMP v-nailer (the model that will shoot at three different positions). I have been practicing with it but still very unsatisfied with it's performance. I must be doing something wrong.
My first problem was that the the frame was moving when the nail was shot. I think that I have resolved that problem. I changed from a round pad to an hard rubber angled pad for the top clamp and that seems to help.
My second problem is that there is a hair line crack when the molding is joined. The angle is perfect(I use a morso chopper). The gap is consistant even over the joint.
I need some guidance. I have tried everything that I can think of. I am to the point where I am thinking of gluing and clamping before I shoot the v-nails in it. That really defeats the purpose of the v-nailer doesn't it?
I would appreciate any quidance of advice that anyone could share with me. Please post your comments or email me directly at:

Thanks in advance...Ron
