Yes, John, I have seen a 23 ga pinner and, for my use, it's just a little too flimsy. The nailers are good but I usually need a little more strength than the 23 guage. For very light tacking, they work great.
Hello Fred,
I have had success at installing crown molding on cabinetry. The longer one will hold fine, but they do work best with glue. I have also used them on Brazillian Koa, so they'll work with exotic hardwoods
good luck,
Michael

Keep in mind---
Pin-nailers were designed and intended for ''pinning'', an item in place---
such as small trim, and the like.
The nearly headless feature, of a pin-nail is least visible,
vs a brad nail that has a small diameter head.
The small dia heads, on brads, and countersunk, generally will require a filler material, to cover the head to make in hidden.
I generally practice on a piece of scrap material, or,
place the pin-nail, in a least visible location---
then check to see if it needs any further treatment.
If needed, a small dab of colored crayon, or the like, to match the surrounding area, can be added.
There are several different colored filler crayons, available on the market, that produce satisfactory results.
Pin nailers are great for holding an object in place, while the glue is drying.
"Works for me."

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction. I have considerable experience with conventional…
