I use a blind nailer to fasten face frames. Basically, it raises a sliver of
wood, a nail is hit home and countersunk and then the sliver of wood is
glued back in place. Very easy, very clean.With a little practice, it makes
the attachment point virtually invisible. LV recommends fish glue, but my
preference is white carpenter's glue.

If you do use this method, I suggest that with hardwood, a slightly
undersized hole be drilled in the hardwood to permit easier insertion of the
nail. It's a bummer when you're doing a lot of hammering to bang the nail
home and you deflect off the nail crushing a portion of your face frame.

I've contemplated that very tool, but the product description warns not
to use it in brittle woods like cherry. Unfortunately, this is mostly
what I work with. Have you ever used it on cherry, and if so, how did
it do for you?

TIA.
