with this nailer, you cant use the lower amp hour batteries. you should use at least a 4ah battery. and dont try shooting 3" ring shank nails. aint made for that.
i have the 60v and 20v, but prefer the 20v since it is lighter and has the 4 position blade. plenty of power with the 20v. 60v is a monster, but too heavy.
yuo can always predrill the frame with a normal drill from the outside before setting in place. then all you need is to drill a bit into the second frame.
but the DWARA100 will definetly do the job. and you should be using an impact driver. makes driving screws way easier. and the impact is shorter.
I never understood hammer drills. All they do is make noise.
You need a sds rotary drill.
Something like this on the cheaper end.

Flexvolt 12 inch is too big. And local store is clearancing the dcb361b for 199. Wondering if I should get it. But would wait if another miter is coming soon.
i didnt think i'd use my small blower much, but i actually use it a lot. blowing off equipment, blowing drywall dust off walls for paint. blowing floors, blow out my van!, etc.
