We have just had two weeks of record low winter temperatures here in Maine. High winds and near zero thermometer readings were producing 20 degrees below zero wind chills. The cold wind was infiltrating my old house between sills and foundation and my baseboard heating pipes froze. I took a quick ride to the hardware store and found 50 foot rolls of foiled bubble insulation. With my wife inside the house working a hair dryer on the frozen section of baseboard, within an hour I had stapled the foil wrap from ground up several courses of clapboards, effectively creating an insulating wind break barrier around the house. My T50 Arrow stapler with 3/8 stainless staples worked flawlessly in the sub zero conditions, tacking up 250 feet of insulation in half an hour. My Arrow T50 had always been a dependable part of my tool collection, but having it perform without a hitch in this extreme weather was a great perk! We did get the pipes thawed and had no more problems during the bitter cold week that followed.
As a Handyman I have owned a T-50 for over 25 years. About a month ago I went to use my T-50 and noticed that it was just worn out after use after use. I went to Lowes and picked up another one. I noticed other brands while looking at the Arrow brand and I knew to buy another ARROW T-50. I have been very pleased over the years at the different type jobs that I could use my T-50 on. I have all the size staples offered and use them when needed. I love my T-50.
Pros: General Repairs
