   *Jim, That's my next option; after installing that nice hanger on my saw I was hoping for something a little more refined than one of my famous bailing wire hooks to install on the nailer. But, if all else fails, backyard engineering will have to do!:-) Sam

   *Try http://www.prazi.com or http://www.toolcribofthenorth.com I haven't used either one personally but have heard the one from prazi is real handy. The one from tool crib is called an air gun hanger and goes on the quick connect fitting some how. Let me know how they work if you get one.

   *Sam I just got a new Duluth Trading Co catalouge and they have a " Prazzi Bigg Lugg " for $12.99 . It clips onto your belt and can be adjusted to fit different tools , looks like it would work pretty good to me . Thier # 800-505-8888 . Chuck

   *HEY SAM TRY USING THAT "NICE HANGER" FOR YOUR GUN.I'M GUESSING YOU HAVE THE HANGER THAT SWINGS AWAY ON YOUR SAW,THAT'S WHAT I HAVE ON ALL OF MINE.HERE IS WHAT I DID,I MOUNTED IT ON THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE TRACK,YES,I HAD TO DRILL A COUPLE OF HOLES.I MOUNTED IT BY PLACING THE HOOK JUST AHEAD OF WHERE THE ALLEN WRENCH ENDS,THE ONLY PROBLEM YOU MIGHT HAVE IS IF YOU USE 3&1/2 INCH NAILS,THEY MAY HIT THE SCREWS.THE BIG ADVANTAGE IS YOU CAN SWING THE HOOK LEFT,RIGHT,CENTER,AND NEATLY AGAINST THE TRACK WHEN YOUR ARE NOT USING IT.THE HOOK I USE IS THE ONE SOLD FOR USE WITH SKIL, B&D OR CRAFTSMAN SAWS AND HITACHI GUNS.

   *SAM DON'T DRILL ANY HOLES JUST YET. I JUST GOT BACK FROM MY PASLODE DEALER, THEY NOW HAVE A HANGER JUST FOR OUR GUNS.IT IS SIMILAR TO THE SAW HANGER,OK IT'S THE SAME ONE WITH DIFFERENT MOUNTING HARDWARE. A LONGER SHIM AND BOLT ALLOW YOU TO MOUNT IT RIGHT BEHIND THE GRIP AT THE BOLT WHERE IT CONNECTS TO THE TRACK.THE PART NUMBER IS 501049, AND IT COST ME 10.95 PLUS TAX. HOPE THIS IS OF HELP TO YOU.JIM AT GREAT WHITEP.S. ONLY BUMMER IS YOU CAN ONLY HANG IT ONE WAY.

   Well, now that the stapler problem is licked I'm moving on to other problems: Is there a hanger available for the current Paslode Powermaster stick nailer? There seem to be hangers for the Hitachi guns but I've yet to see one for the Paslode. A couple of days up on a ladder with no way to hang it has me convinced of the need for one.
