23g pin nailer
A customer dropped off a large cupboard door (well made in Tasmanian Blackwood) needing a new piece of glass.
The glass is held in with glazing beads fixed with headless pins.
I have been putting off buying a pin nailer, not really being able to justify the purchase, so bit the bullet and bought the nailer.
Now I'm having a hard time finding pins in Australia.
I will buy from America if I have to, but does anyone know where I can buy some 23g x 15mm pins quickly.
Sydney Tools don't have any.
Thanks,
Keith

Kev....Thanks, would you believe the only size they don't have in stock is 15mm.
Peter....Yes I agree, a bit poor. They must be going out of that line.
Can't understand why these things aren't more popular in Australia.

Thanks Mick,
Tried one of their outlets, (non listed for Cairns), got a guy who just started in that job. Supposed to ring me back Tuesday next week.
Some one must stock them

Hi Kieth, I might be able to help, I have a few boxes of headless pins about that size, not sure on guage atm and they might be 16mm long, I'd have to check, they are vertical stacked, not set at an angle as some nailers are.

Thanks Pete, 16mm would be great. I'll send you a PM.
