    Takes too long anyways.

    I built the floor system with a hammer cause my compressor had died. That sucked, i went out the next day and replaced the compressor

    yea my mother in law had us come to charlotte and build her a deck 12x20 so i tore off the old one and hooked up the compressor and nail gun went to start the rebuild and the compressor wouldn't stay running, so i went to Lowes and bought one i didn't even try and use the hammer for all that i had to do.

    I enjoy buying new tools i try and update evruy 5 years or so. I dont do alot of building being gone all week but i do build fences, sheds equipment sheds decks and other stuff around the homestead so they do get used. Matter of fact i'm in the middle of fencing inn the front pasture with 4 rail fencing so they do get used.

    I hate doing fencing. I had ten acres in pasture.at my last place. Its never ending and i hate digging.

    I need to find a skid steer or a tractor with a 12" auger that i can rent. I need to dig 15 holes for foundation piers and i hate the thought of doing it by hand.
