Thanks Ray....I have one taking up space over here......hasnt been used in literally decades. I keep stuff around ...even though I will certainly never use again.

The wooden mallet handle is puckered to help keep your grip......some spit has been used on occasion for that too

Screw that....It's been ten years since I actually did the installing of a wood floor, but whenever I rented the tool, it was going to have a nipple for my air hose... I subbed out the big floor installs anyway.

Yeah Ross we sub out most flooring installs too, we make the call to do it ourselves when schedules and manpower dictate. When we sub it out we get many more complaints and often have to replace the pieces with obvious defects that the morons installed. They also way overdo it with the excessive face nailing of final courses.....totally unnecessary. Another example of a guy with a nail gun overnailing the crap out of something.

I worked for a custom home builder who kept the use of subs to a minimum.... even poured our own concrete floors. I use to get a sick feeling in my stomach...hearing the concrete trucks pulling up to the job first thing in the morning....
