Hi
I wanted to purchase an upholstery gun and stapler. I have been using the BEA long nose at my class, however to purchase this model and silent compressor is quite expensive.
I have looked at JA Milton, however does anyone else have any other recommendations.
Thanks
My first compressor was bought second hand. It was home made from a car air conditioner compressor and an electric motor from an old refrigerator. I used it for years. I'm not suggesting you build one but look on Craigs list for a second hand one.
Sometimes you can find Bea staple guns on ebay.
check ebay for the GMC silent portable compressor. This is a great portable for around 299 or you can get a new Makita hotdog tank for 199. both are excellent compressors easy on the wallet. Next you can go to internationaltool.com and pick up a Porter and Cable upholstery staple gun for $89, just don't drop it, it is made out of cast aluminum. My favorite gun is an older model Rainco. You can find both products on ebay used and get great deals. if you do not want to spend that much, go to Harbor Freight and buy their wide crown staple gun for $30 and replace when it breaks.
