    Blue Hawk SGY-NS8 manual

    Can anyone help me with finding a Blue Hawk SGY-NS8 manual? I recently acquired one that already had some nails and works well, but the labels are well-worn, and I'm not sure what size nails / staples it uses, other than what was in it. It seems that they were sold by Lowe's and are 18 gauge.

    I was able to get a replacement bolt and try out the saw. So far, so good!

    Air blow gun repair

    I know the old saying, "They don't make 'em like they used to", so I was wondering, would this old one would be worth repairing? If not, I'll just chunk it and get another one.
