If I ever get to the point where all order are out and I have no orders at all to make I will be in trouble, but as of right now I have 13 still to make and get out. I always have something already lined up, so in that regard I guess I am doing better than some others out there. Still, I have never, ever had every job complete with nothing to make next. Once I do catch up hopefully more orders start trickling in. I have an 8-10 week lead time so I have work but no payouts coming in. Most of the clients are holding on, but I may get some cancellations and on top of the new orders not coming in it's a bit nerve racking. I have been working in the shop at nights, but I am not getting very much done. Now all 6 kids are off school with 4 of the little ones home all day for the next two weeks. Well no it means I have had tool break downs and family issues, plus sick kids. Plus the Grex like the Festool TS has features others don't, specifically the self adjusting for nail size. Features include a powerful motor to ensure complete drives into the hardest substrates, auto adjusting. The newly designed TN11G1 comes packed with best-in-class features for the most demanding professionals. Both will do the job but one is more fun to use and gives more consistent results. The Senco TN11G1 23 gauge micro pin nailer, drives micro pin nails from 1/2' to 1-3/8' in length. Kind of like comparing a Porter Cable Circular saw to a TS 75.

Tom I can only compare it to my Porter Cable and Senco and it is in a different league than both of those. The Cadex was my next choice, I have not tried them side by side. I only got this because my last one broke and I have to have one in the shop and I vowed never to mess with a crappy unit again. I have wasted to much time messing with bent pins, pins getting jammed, etc. I will never go back to anything else after using it for 3 weeks. I use it to hold templates and inlays in place and that's it.

Most guys use it for trim and shoot many more nails than me though. I have not used it enough to ever have a nail not set yet so to me its perfect. The Grex is self adjusting for the different sizes, I never have to mess with the pressure and the grex seems to work well below the recommended pressure too. Actually the 23 gauge pin nailers are notorious for being hard to get the nails set perfectly, then when you change size you go through it all again, messing with pressure and what not.
