Oh dear, I'm coming, honest.
I've got a nailgun which does brads and staples - most of them do I suspect. It's only an amateur one, and doesn't get used that often. My excuse was that I needed it to put hundreds, literally, of staples in the aviary I was building. I don't think I would have bothered otherwise.
One thing I have used it for in anger round the house is when boxing in pipes etc with thin ply. You can put small brads in very accurately and with one hand, which makes it a lot easier than traditional pins and a hammer.
Down in Burton is J B Kind, and the firm I worked for were next door. They've all moved to new sites now and the old ones are housing. Their website rambles on about doors etc, but their major product was, and as far as I know still is, wooden pallets. You should see their nailing machines.
