Amazon.com Product Review
Leaving a rosebud on the finished siding is a thing of the past when using the Bostitch N66C-1 pneumatic nailer. Now you can drive wire weld and plastic inserted coil nails in to all types of siding materials such as wood panels or wood siding, fiber cement board such as Hardie Plank and even light gauge steel. By simply adjusting the depth guide you can "power nail" decking, fencing and some heavier shingle materials. The lightweight body, just 4.4 pounds, is easy to handle and the durable aluminum body will add years to the life of the tool. The N66C-1 is designed with a soft rubber foot to prevent scarring or damage to the working surfaces plus an adjustable exhaust port that can be easily set to divert the exhaust away from the user. A handy rugged storage/carrying case is included to prevent accidental damage and to keep the tool clean. i--C. Dwight Barnett/i

5 out of 5 stars Siding gun   September 21, 2008
Jerry Jones (midwest)
I had some Hardiboard lap siding to install on a customers house and bought this nailer to do the job.It worked excellent.Can't beat it for the price. Other guns I look at were up to $400 so at the price this was a bargain. would reccommend.


2 out of 5 stars n66 Bostich not very good   September 13, 2008
G. Swan (central MT)
i bought this gun about 2 years ago and I am quite disappointed in it's performance. i am a builder and use it primarily for siding. It will not completely drive nails into anything much harder than cedar or balsa wood!! Forget about driving into Hardie trim or even Miratec. Like a lot of Bostich nailers, it's a piece of junk!


5 out of 5 stars excellent siding gun   August 3, 2008

Bought this gun to do a Hardi Plank fiber cement job. Gun worked great, went through a box of 3600 2 1/2 inch nails without a problem. Has a nice handle on it to hang on ladder when not in use. I did buy an attachment for the nose of the gun that sets the nail at 1" from top of siding, saving time and eliminating a wrongly placed nail. I blind nailed the siding. The attachment was from Big Sky Adapters. br / br /Very pleased with the gun as I am with my other Bostich nailing guns.


3 out of 5 stars Good feel, too light.   July 23, 2008

I'm a professional carpenter and I bought the Bostitch n66c for most recent house that I'm building. After 20 square i've found that the gun is great. It has on;y miss fired a few times and usually because the coil is almost out. The air exhaust positioning is awsome, the balance great. The downside is that the gun is too light. i found that you have to push extra hard for the nails to seat at the depth that you have the gun adjusted for. My buddy has an older, heavier version of this gun by Bostitch and you really notice the differance. His gun feels like it'll last 10 years on a jobsite, drives the nails completly every shot and is also noticably quieter. I own 5 Bostitch nailers and I don't think that I'll ever buy another. The quality has declined severly over the years despite some good inovations on their products. My finish gun only lasted 3 years of moderate use and my roofing gun isn't even in the same league as my buddy's Max (which has never- really- double shot). If this gun was only $150 I'd expect the way it handled, but for $300, it needs to perform.


5 out of 5 stars Bostitch N66C-1 for stockade fence work   June 18, 2008

I purchased this tool specifically for fence work on six foot tall by eight foot long stockade fence sections. These were purchased with only one nail into each of the three cross ties in order to allow the fence to parallelogram following the rise or fall in the ground. Once the fence sections were all correctly aligned and bolted to their respective posts, one additional nail is then driven into each cross tie (three nails per board)to help prevent sagging, cupping and more securely tie the individual boards to the cross ties. MY fence is 31 sections (about 250 feet)and driving the final three nails per board, for the entire 250 feet, took only 2.5 hours and I wasn't pushing it. My N66C-1 worked perfectly right out of the box at 100Psi air pressure. The tool loads a nail coil in about 30 seconds. I ordered a box (4200 count) of Bostitch part number C5R80BDG wire coalated nails (1.75" long, 0.80 Dia., ring shank type) when I purchased the tool. Not a single bobble out of the box. It drives nails as fast as you can move from board to board.
