I finally hit 500 linear feet of cedar fence installed in a single month.
It surprised me because I'd never broken 400 before, and it only happened after switching to a Paslode framing nailer for the posts and rails.

Man, that's wild. I bet the real game changer was not having to swing a hammer for every single nail. Your arms must feel way better than usual after a month like that.

Honestly, my forearms used to ache for days after framing a whole wall. Last week I drove over 500 nails with a coil gun and felt fine the next morning. Tbh the time saved is insane too, like cutting a full day's work down to a few hours. It's a different kind of tired, more mental from the pace than physical.

Yeah the "arms feeling better" part is huge. I used to think it was just about speed but my whole body thanks me now.
