Midwest Tool and Cutlery MWT-TND Trim Nail Driver

Good quality

Love this punch! Well designed and thoughtfully manufactured. The contracting insert works great for wood house and finish nails. Highly recommend this punch for neatly pounding nails straight and securely into wood! I know I have just begun to explore all the application uses this punch may be capable of!

Best trim punch ever made!! Gets into tight places with ease, not big and cumbersome in your nail bag either.

When I was installing aluminum soffit and fascia you’re on a ladder or scaffolding up high and trying to hold onto small trim nails to fasten them. With this driver, you put the nail in the barrel of the driver, place it where you want to and then hit the bottom shaft of the nail driver with a hammer. It lessens dropped nails and wrong placement and also hammer dimples in the aluminum trim from missing the head of the nail. You get used to using it and can sense when the nail is driven in all the way and I watched on the barrel of the driver as after use the metal shows a little bit of scuffing or slightly different color that indicates when the nail is driven all the way. I would say it doubles your speed of nailing and lessens errors a lot, ie, bent nails, wrong spot when you slip. I got used to using an extra finger to place on the tool to hold the barrel and shaft together between hammer blows, otherwise in nailing mostly vertically, the shaft drops down with gravity to the bottom of the barrel and that slows down nailing a bit. Great tool, well constructed and decent price. If you’ve got a trim job coming, buy it, it looks like it will last for years of use. It will not eliminate all problems from bluppers or slips or misjudgment, but will speed things along well and it’s made in the USA!

Great nail set tool would buy again
