What are the best nail guns for crafts? The best nail gun for crafts is lightweight, accurate, and versatile enough for a range of craft materials. Brad nailers are the most popular nail guns for crafts. It’s important to consider the weight of a nail gun if you plan to use it for prolonged periods or above head height, as a heavy tool will cause fatigue. Electric and air nail guns are the lightest types. Battery-powered nail guns are heavier, but they vary depending on the size of the battery. So, if portability is required, choose a model with a small battery.

Although this doesn’t cover every type of nailer available, most nail guns can be categorised as either First fix or second fix. There are significant differences between 18-gauge and 16-gauge tools. Most importantly, 18-gauge finishing nails are more commonly known as brad nails (and the tools that fire them are known as brad nailers). These fasteners are very thin and their head is very easily concealed with a tiny dot of filler. However, the longer the nail, and the tougher the material you are driving it into, the more risk that an 18-gauge nail will misfire and bend—or even jam in the nailer. These fasteners come in various lengths and are sold in strips that slide into the nailer’s magazine. The strip’s width is the length of each brad (2 inches, say), and the length of the strip equals the number of fasteners. A box of these fasteners may contain anywhere from several hundred fasteners to a couple thousand.
