Slips off the head of L cleats:
I bought one of these with high hopes. They were not met. It seems like the right idea. It seems like it should work because it is made by a company that sells flooring nails and nailers. As was noted by another reviewer, the working end of the tool is just like a flat-bladed screw driver. It slips off the top of the cleat. I end up with this tool slipping off the top of the cleat and hitting the wood. That is not good. I don't use it any more, under any circumstances. I don't use nail sets either for... more info
Flooring Nail Setting Tool:
I'm using cleat flooring nails and found this tool completely worthless for setting them into hard maple. The tip is basically equivalent to a slot screwdriver, so it slipped right off of the nail head when aligned. I found a standard medium head nailset simpler and more effective.
It was just OK:
For the most part I preferred to use this setter rather than my other nail sets for the L-Nail, but I do think that it could have been designed much better to prevent it from slipping off the nail head.
useless:
this item is a waste of money I found a large size center punch worked much better at 1/4 of the price.
