Online registration is now open for the Philadelphia Floor Store's (PFS) Nailer Day, which will be held March 19 at the distributor’s Conshohocken, Pa., showroom.
The free event—open to all hardwood floor contractors—will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The “Fastest Nailer in the East” contest at the event, sponsored by Aacer Flooring, is a test of both skill and speed, as the competitor to nail down 18 square feet of wood in the least amount of time will claim the title and $500 Grand Prize. PFS will give out cash awards to 2nd and 3rd place finishers, as well as prizes to all who enter the competition. The company also plans to offer an amateur division for first-time contestants.
“We expanded the Fastest Nailer in the East format so we could reward each contestant for his or her effort," said Mike Glavin, founder of PFS. "The contest is intended to be fun, and our goal is to encourage those standing on the sidelines to jump in and give it a whirl.”
According to Glavin, Nailer Day attendees will receive discounts and a chance to win tools, equipment and other prizes, including a Primatech P250 ALR Nailer.
Representatives from manufacturers will be on hand to answer questions and showcase new products, and PFS will offer free labor on nailer repairs.
