Perfect to quickly remove nails from timber, especially pallets. Had one for a couple of years and it gets the job done.
Note that it doesn't come with a nitto fitting.
Usually around $80 (https://au.camelcamelcamel.com/product/B003X2QM3G).

Where do you buy originals from??
Supercheap has genuine Nitto fittings.
Hydraulic hose stores should stock them as well. As would places like Blackwood.
Thanks for that - I'll just get them from SC. Cheers!
Interesting sounding device, does it operate similar to an air hammer/chisel?
Not quite, there is no repeat hammering. It is a single punch action. The protruding part of the nail goes inside the barrel, and the piston punches it out (with quite a bit of force, so you need to wear glasses as nails can fly around).
would this allow pushing down nail heads on flooring timber to enable easy floor sanding?
Nope.
Any recommendations for a small air pump to go with this?
Just for garage house, bike/ garage workshop stuff
Just what the wife needs for a Xmas present……. ;)
looks handy but coming up as $92 for unit or $97 with extra piston.
handy even for thicker timber and finish with claw hammer ….hate having to straighten nails to extract.
I can recommend this 100%.
Has saved me hours and hours of time over the years de-nailing.
Be sure to purchase an extra punch should you be planning on doing a lot of work with this.
At the time of purchasing mine I had to import from the US because there were no stockists here.
Definitely grabbing another.
Thanks OP.
I'm seeing it at $92 now :-/
pro tip: for those who need Nitto fittings, do yourself a favor and only buy the genuine Nitto made in Japan. The Taiwanese/Chinese copies are shit, leak air, tend to come flying off and can be surprisingly expensive when compared to the genuine Nitto stuff.
