I had a bunch of siding to do so bought a siding nailer on eBay. I
planned to turn it around when I was done (along with a half a box
of stainless nails), but haven't yet. There are a bunch of
"flooring staplers" on eBay.

Bernie:

I've only used the manual type and they do give you a workout. Some say
they do a better job because it takes a couple of wacks to drive each
nail and that sets the boards tighter together. If you've got the arms,
the manual will do fine. If you don't, you will by the time you tackle
the second house.
