    I dont have a favourite one, but in a fine woodworker tips collum, it was suggested you can use them as small clamps for small panels by passing the timber through them and squeezing the trigger to clamp up... cool eh Oh... Lou, what do you think of the sikaflex?

    This one.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I just use the good old orange ones which are somewhere between ridiculously cheap and ridiculously expensive.
    It is not like they are a tool used under high stress, if the nozzle is blocked or the silicone or whatever you are using has gone off, replace it.

    A very brief google tells me that it is either Toowoomba, Canberra, or Ballarat.
    One site said wagga was NSW biggest inland city.
    I just remember spending a few months there in 94 and all the locals saying it was the biggest inland city.
    I guess they were just trying to have a "claim to fame".

    I posted this in home renovations a couple of months ago. i still reckon the pneumatic caulking gun cannot be beaten.

    it is so much fun to use i rarely get to play with it. i just start setting up and other people start taking over. no sore hands, great control, and only $17
