Cable Tacker

[alterEGO]

Like I said in my original post, there is a time when they are better than normal clips,like under carpets,I'm not looking to abuse them like the BT boys do. I had a Draper one many moons ago,but that was toilet.

if the cable was being fixed and not in trunk or on brick i would always use the gun, why not? as long as it isn't set to high causing resistance problems ect.

What does LBHA stand for?

local borough housing authority.[council scum contracts]

Oh I see!

I only use them where cable can't be conceiled, and clips would stand out too much.

There are Rapesco ones on ebay at the moment,the same ones that B&Q sell, are these the kiddies you are refering to as they seem a bit cheap?

I have to agree with Angus,like all tools if used correctly and with care there should be no problem.
