You might be able to use larger or smaller but you would have to call the manufacture. ___________________________________________________________________________________ * Through automated loading and air-powered insertion of "Christmas Tree Fasteners", The Grinch™ saves unnecessary intensive manual labor and time. * Through utilization of a trigger, The Grinch™ frees up an additional hand for upholstery adjustment, making the process easier. * The current awkward process of using fingers and mallets is slow and lends itself to carpal-tunnel syndrome; however, The Grinch™ is fast and does not require strenuous movements. * The Grinch™ ensures secure, consistent placements of "Christmas Tree Fasteners" through automation. Here is a press release for The Grinch... The Grinch™ Steals Costly Seconds from Christmas Tree Fastener Installation Time Fremont Machine and Tool's new hand-held assembly gun secures fasteners with speed and accuracy FREMONT, NE - June 7, 1999 - Fremont Machine and Tool (FMT) has launched a new product, The Grinch™, a hand-held air gun that automates the process of securing plastic "Christmas tree" fasteners that are used to assemble products in a variety of industries. The Grinch™, patent pending, works like an air gun. The user empties a box of fasteners into a hopper, which files them through a tube into the gun. Pulling a trigger shoots the fasteners in, automating what was once a manual process. "The benefits are clear. The old method is time and labor intensive, and The Grinch™ shaves off valuable assembly time by doing the job automatically," said Kelly Benes, vice-president of sales and marketing for Fremont Machine and Tool. "Plus you have the added advantage of secure, consistent placements." The Grinch™ comes in different models according to fastener size and can be custom-made to suit any size fastener. It can be used wherever automotive manufacturers use Christmas tree fasteners, whether it's for anchoring upholstery, blanket carpet, door panels or fire blankets under a car's hood. The Grinch™ also can be used in other industries, for example to secure furniture upholstery or to assemble toys, appliances or shelving. The Grinch™ is even smaller and lighter than a typical air nailer, weighing only a few pounds. Its handle is comfortable and the product is balanced for operator's comfort. The Grinch's price is based on tooling charges for fastener customization. ___________________________________________________________________________________ This is used, and in excellent condition.
