PINOZE Point Driver HM515 Manual Tool with 2000-Count Flexible Point Nails and Tool Pouch, Picture Framing Tool for DIY Crafts, Frame Point Driver, Picture Frame Stapler/Nailer/Tacker (Silver)

Easy to operate. Heavy like a good quality item.

It's excellent for upholstery and for gluing down carpets. I really liked the material—it's good quality and comes with its clips.

Didn't come with instructions, and I was too frustrated trying to figure out how to load it. The nails also were all broken apart, instead of in solid sheets. It does come with a cute bag though. I will update my review if I figure out how to load it and can test its durability.

This thing works great. It didn't come with instructions but once I figured out how to load it, it was excellent. It's a solid feeling tool in the hand and has worked great for holding pictures in frames for me. Zero jams so far. The carry bag is a nice addition that can hold the tool plus ammo.

This PINOZE point driver kit works once I was able to get it loaded. I will clarify this detail in the next few paragraphs. This is the second point driver kit that I own. My other set was purchased from a very large chain craft store. I have a craft room with a full setup to make picture frames and I use a point driver like this one along with a large Kraft paper roller, tape roller and edge trimmer. The design of the two point drivers seems to be the same, in my opinion. The design compares somewhat to an upholstery stapler. The point fires forward rather than downward. I wanted this second point driver to take to friends' homes when I visit since I am frequently asked to tidy up or fix the way frames are holding photos, canvas, or other art materials while I am visiting. I chose this PINOZE point driver because I have other tools from this brand that have been very good quality and worked well. I am not rating this point driver 3 stars because it works poorly. I am giving this rating based on the way the points are connected into a stick - as well as the way the kit was assembled and packed at the manufacturer. The points were in boxes as thin as card stock. They were not held in place or in a bag to secure them. One of the two styles released the points all over the driver. The zipper case has a tiny hole worn in one side of the bag. I dumped out points, tapping the tool on the counter to loosen more points for about 10 minutes. I kept trying to remove them from various places they had taken up residence in the tool. The loose points prevented the point driver from being loaded and from functioning until I found every last one. I have added photos of what I am describing to my review. I recommend that the manufacturer change this part of their process before the kit leaves the factory. For comparison, the points with my other set were in a hard plastic box that snapped closed. The points with my other kit were also more securely linked together into a stick. The points in this set have a thin layer of plastic or tape holding them into that shape of a stick. The tape is not strong enough to keep the sticks whole. It compares to getting a box of staples that is in small chunks instead of in whole sticks. Using the small chunks or single pieces will not allow the tool to operate properly based on my tests after using the tool with a whole stick. The sticks in this set would benefit from a stronger material holding them. It would also benefit from placing the points in a way that won’t allow them to become lodged in the tool. This could be achieved by placing them outside the zipper case or in their own bag. If the points are in pieces, I suggest using a small flashlight and checking every tiny area of the tool for anything that looks like a point if the driver is not operational or the stick of points won’t load properly. I hope my details, thoughts and photos help someone.

If you make your own picture frames this is must have! Keeps pictures famed nicely and without damage. Do be careful to use it around glass to ensure you don’t crack a glass frame. This came with the driver and points. The box for the points were damaged upon arrival but the product was just fine. Comes in an easy to carry holder for easy storage.

Where has this tool been my whole life? For years, I have struggled with those horrible, cheap staples that are imbedded into most picture frames. They barely hold the cardboard backing into the frame, are so difficult to pull up and then get them back into the original position. They never seem to lay flat again, no matter how much you press down on them. Needless to say, I was vey excited when I discovered this tool and bought it instantly! As soon as it arrived, I had to try it out. Inside the box was a pink Pinoze Point Driver tool, two boxes containing a total of 2000 flexible point nails and a matching pink zippered storage pouch. Instructions were not included, however, there were pictures provided on their item description page. So easy to use! In my photos, you can see you press down on the button on the top of the tool. This will pop up the lid of the cartridge area so you can load the point nails. One end of the point nails are flat, and the other end has a “V” point. Place the cartridge in the well with the “v” point end up, facing you. Snap the lid closed and you are ready to use. You simply place the tip of the tool to the frame, pull the lever, and it is done. It really is that easy! The Point Driver tool is lightweight, and compact. It measures 5” tall and 7” length and will take very little room to store. I am in the process of learning how to frame and this tool is just what I needed.

I’ve always just used small nails when building picture frames, and it worked… but it wasn’t exactly quick or convenient. After using the Point Driver HM515, I can honestly say I never knew I needed this tool until now. It makes finishing off frames so much faster and easier. The flexible point nails hold everything securely in place, and the tool itself is simple to use and comfortable in hand. It gives a much cleaner, more professional result compared to tapping in nails by hand. The included 2000-count of points is a great bonus, and the pouch is nice for keeping everything together in the workshop. If you build frames for DIY crafts or projects, this is one of those tools that once you use it, you won’t want to go back. What a great tool.
