Air compressor and nailer - what to get?

[wixy]

I am about to replace all the architraves and skirting in my house, and I also need to put up new cement sheeting under the eaves (which will involve fixing timber quad on both sides). All will be fixed into hardwood.

I'm thinking this job will be made easier with a nail gun. Gas/electric nail guns are too expensive for the limited use they'd have. What about a small air compressor and cheap nail gun?

Would a compressor like this do the job: https://www.masters.com.au/product/1...rad-nailer-kit

Partnered with (for example): https://www.masters.com.au/product/9...r-rw-cngw-45mm

Also, some years (5+) down the track I will also want to build a deck outside.

I'd really appreciate any advice (obvious newbie here).

Imho this setup is not the way to go.
These compressors are to slow and you will spend too much time waiting for air to build up between nailings.Also the brad nailer does not take long enough nails to nail off skirts and archs.For the work you want to do a coil nailer will not be required.
A larger compressor with a DA bradder would be the way i would go and when you are ready to do your deck get a framing nailer.
I cannot recommend a cheap gun as i need my guns to work all day everyday so only buy quality tools.
Hope this helps
Cheers Jim

I agree with jimfish about the compressor, better to spend a few more bucks. I have a 2HP (cheapie?) certainly not top dollar unit. Even this compressor works hard to keep up with my finishing nail gun. Doing skirts and archs I would fire off 60 mm nails in very quick succession. Every so often the heads would start to stick out a bit which then needed a touch up with a nail punch, so I would then let the compressor catch up.
its still faster and easier than doing it by hammer so tick that box. Just work out what your highest volume tool is going to need air wise and buy a suitable compressor even if you don't buy the high volume tool as your first tool the compressor will be ok.
brad gun ( no probs)
stapler ( no probs)
secret nailer( no probs)
die grinder ( no probs)
rattle gun ( on wish list but will be fine)
Finishing angle nailer ( 10 - 15 round spurts no problem)
framing nailer same as finishing ( mate borrowed my compressor to run his framing gun as his compressor not up to it at all)
