Who Needs A Garden Hose Reel?

Take a quick look around your house and if by chance you spot a garden hose strewn across the lawn, tied up in knots or piled up next to the outdoor faucet, you're likely a good candidate for purchasing a garden hose reel. A hose reel consists of tire chuck a cylindrical spindle, typically made of metal, fiberglass or plastic and offers a convenient solution for properly storing a garden hose. Common varieties include manual hand crank models along with spring or motor driven automatic retractable reels. If you're getting on into the later years of life, you'll find the ease of use of automatic retractable reels very satisfying and you won't have to carry around or manually crank those hoses back into position. These systems are categorized by the length of hose, water pressure rating and the rewind method they use. The marketplace offers a range of fixed units (e.g. wall mount), portable units and carts.

Wall Mount Models

One of the best solutions for many homes is the wall mount hose reel. Since the unit is mounted to your home or wall you won't have to worry about weight so you can buy a larger diameter reel and use extremely long hoses to reach the farthest places in your yard or garden. Quality made units made of metal can last for many years. Some manufacturers offer 10 year warranties. I live by the sea so metal just doesn't last with all the salt air, but otherwise this is a good bet. If you want to spend a bit more check into the automatic retractable systems and you won't have to manually wind up the hose every time your kids are done playing.

Portable Models

Typically less expensive and extremely handy for those on the go is today's portable hose reel. You can leave these units in the garage or in the back of your truck and they provide a quick and easy alternative to dragging around a floppy hose whenever you need one. These units are typically lightweight, have built-in handles, use manual cranks to retract the hose and hold shorter length hoses up to about 65 feet. If this sounds like what you're looking for then the portable cassette reel is the right choice for you.

Hose Reel Carts

The hose reel cart fills the gap between wall mount units and hand-held portable hose reels. These units can hold longer hoses then other portable units and are built into a portable cart so you can reach the farthest extremes of your property. High quality units typically offer larger rugged frames, braking systems, are extremely stable and tip resistant, elevate to higher back-saving levels and offer comfortable grips to make moving the units around easy on you. These units can also be put into the back of your truck to handle jobs at remote locations.

Regardless of the type of air tool being used, proper safety and guidelines are always warranted. By following a simple set of guidelines, using a pneumatic staple gun can help you get more work done in less time while remaining safe from injury.

Having used pneumatic tools air coupling fittings before, I myself have assumed I know how they work before actually using them. This can be a big mistake and you should make sure to read the documentation that comes with the stapler to know its functions and safety guidelines. Like most things, it's never a good idea to assume anything... we all know what that means right?

It may seem obvious, but you never want to point a staple gun or any other pneumatic tool at someone else. When I was a house framer years ago, we used to joke around and shoot nails at each other. This all seems fun at the time, but eventually someone got hurt and it wasn't so fun then. I can't tell you how many times one of our framers ended up with a staple or nail in their foot or hand because they weren't paying attention to where they were pointing it. Many pneumatic tools, staple guns included, have pressure brackets or guides that must be depressed before the tool will fire. Never assume these are working properly as they sometimes malfunction. Also, don't disable or remove these features as they're on there for a reason.

When purchasing a pneumatic staple gun, you'll most likely have two choices: bump or sequential trigger types. Generally sequential triggers are thought to be safer, but they all can be safe when used properly. The main concern is to get the right tool for the job. When you start trying to use a tool for jobs which it wasn't specifically intended, you run the risk of it misfiring or causing injury. That is why you'll find different staples designed just for flooring or roofing. Make sure you get the one that's going to be used for it's intended purpose.
