Re: Tool-Test Preview: Compact Compressors

I was just raving about my little Senco that I bought 8 years ago to a co-worker. I have used and abused that little bugger and it has never let me down. At the time it came with the 18 gauge brad nailer for $169.00. Not too shabby. In the time I've had the Senco compressor, I've burned through 2 Porter Cables and 1 Bostitch. My only other compressor is a larger Thomas Air-Pac which has also been bombproof. I can't imagine buying any of the others offered. They are almost disposable.

Re: Larry Haun (1931-2011)

It was very sad to see that Larry Haun had passed away. I got to "know" Larry thanks to Fine Homebuilding magazine and really came to respect his opinion on all things framing. It wasn't until I started to watch every one of Larry's videos I could find that I felt like I got to know more about the kind of person he was. He was so humble, practical, intelligent, and eager to pass on what he had learned throughout his storied career. Larry was also someone who knew that no matter how long you have been doing something, there's always an opportunity to learn something new and different. I'll never get tired of watching Larry send those sinkers home in one blow - pure poetry in motion. Thanks to Larry for all that I have learned from him, and to Fine Homebuilding for honoring a great carpenter and person in such a nice way.

This is a joke, right?
