I was just watching Fox news and saw an incredible product that will save us carpenters hours and hours of time. It is called the Auto-Hammer. You load the handle with nails, then tilt the hammer foreward, push a button, and a nail swings out and is magnetically held in a starting posisition. I can see this as the reveloutionary tool in our industry.
Quote from commercial: “you will now be able to build a deck without boxes of nails lying around.” Oh geez, it is worth the purchase price for that reason alone.
Take a look at this website:

It even comes with a clip on level and 200 all-purpose nails.
WOW!! I want one for Christmas.

Hey, look at the free level that comes with it!!! Maybe when you're finished with your job, you can include a free complimentary Bass-O-Matic for your customers first barbecue!
*Gosh! Gee! Up to 20 nails at once! We're building now, kids ...
*Gabe:Calm down there...My origional post as ment as a joke. The product is obviously a piece of junk, and I thought that phrases such as, "the reveloutionary tool in our industry", and "WOW!! I want one for Christmas" would be more than enough to show my sarcasm. Apparently you didn't get it.Eric
*Yes! I was trying to figgure how to load stainless screws into this hammer to build my deck, because the commercial says I no longer need boxes of nails to build my deck. 20 nails per load, 200 nails come with hammer, maybe the hammer will last long enough to use the nails? This could go well with the pocket button attacher type thingie.Frank DuVal
*Sorry Eric,We have a little thing here against advertizing products. Sarcasm can't always be read when there's no emotion or tones in the content to judge by. Delete one idiot and add one sorry.Gabe
*b WBA At Your Service On a hot summer day, my guys would keep well clear of me swinging that hard plastic handle. I'd need a tether....
*Those all-purpose nails are what sold me. Now I can throw away all those boxes of nails in my truck too!steve
*My God, that anyone would think that someone would buy this thing enough that they pay to make it and advertise it is what I find the most comical. I mean in its wildest dreams it doesn't come close to anything that would work. Man, this gives new credence to the idea that there's one born every minute. And that they're not jailed for it is even more unbelievable..............
*Eric, I saw that tool on tv and immediatly ordered one. I was especially impressed because it can aim the preloaded nail into a joist hanger hole. I just haven't been able to do that with my Stilleto. As soon as my Auto hammer gets here, along with the 200 nails, I'm going to empty my barn and throw out all my air tools!blue
*Blue,Wasn't that joist hanger demo the best part of the commercial? I also loved it when they said that nail guns can cost as much as $169.99 (and showed a picture of a brad nailer).I was laughing when I saw the commercial.Eric
*It may be late to order one in time for Christmas, but wouldn't they be the perfect gift for April Fool's Day? ;-) Come to think of it, maybe this is the beginning of a plot to turn April Fools into another gift giving and merchandizing holiday? ;-)-- J.S.
*Give one to the roookie ehh,,,,,hee hee near the crap stream,aj
*Ok, now I want to see the commercial. Or at least see the hammer in action. Better'n cartoons...
*You guys can laugh, but I already know I'm getting one...I can hear my grandmother now..." Well dear, I thought that maybe you could use this in your carpentry business...".
*Glad my dad-in-law is dead.. He would buy me stuff like that just to insult me,, (he was an electrician) He was also a blacksmith & was always trying to invent a new tool like the blacksmith that invented Vicegrips..
*Don't laugh-- I bet a bunch of you guys get one for Xmas from wives or family members that believe that garbage is for real.
*Posted by FryedCome back when you get a nail gun, then we will talk
*C'mon guys, I can't wait to buy one so I can walk onto the site to frame a new home with it. HAHAHAHAI think if anyone showed up with one on the job site, we'd use it to beat him to death.
*There is obviously no end to the worthless crap that gets produced and put on the market. There is nothing worse than an inferior or downright stupid "tool", as I'm sure you all will agree. Advertising and marketing are often about creating a perceived need, rather than trying to satisfy an actual need. If they can get people to think they need something, then voila!!!, it will sell. Somebody will probably get rich off of this piece of junk. Amazing, but sadly, all too true.
*I bought one of these to use building my doll houses.I was disapointed because the little brads I use kept falling right through and down on the floor and all up under my little work bench.I hope they come out with a small one that will work with these little brads.
