Wow,

I didn't know these existed. Reible, what I need to know is where can I find this tool? I am actually going to use these fasteners for the frame that I am making for my bathroom mirror and didn't know that there was a tool to hammer these in. I tried these fasteners on a scrap piece of wood and it really sucks just using a hammer if you know what I mean. So where can I get one? I'll check the hardware store. Later....

Thanks Billwolley,

Actually I bought a package of those fasteners in Menard's, which is a midwest hardware store and it is labeled corregated fasteners. I guess different companys label them different. Hehe...

Well anyway, I did try it on scrap wood the same size that I will be doing the framing just to test out the result and the wood didn't split. I tried it on two different pieces just to make sure and I used two of them on one. I used it on 1 by 2 clear pine with good results. No splits. I'm still not 100 percent sure if I still should go that route though. I'm still working on it. Thanks for checking on that tool for me. Later...

Thanks reible! Okay, I have an Ace nearby and will check with them. Once again, thank you very much!

Hmmm... I was just wondering what's the name of the tool....does it have a name?

I was thinking the "corrugated fastener striker." Hehe...lol Thanks anyway! No biggy!

Well... no luck. I checked Menards, Ace and Lowes. I guess you're the lucky one reible! Oh well, the basic hammer and needle nose pliers will have to do.
