Deck Fastening Made Easy
via amazon.com
This new deck fastening system features a drive attachment you can use with a drill you already own, while standing. The Camo Drive drill attachment uses collated strip screws that automatically advance so you’re ready for the next screw right away. The tool comes with three fastening guides to fasten deck boards in three different ways: For solid wood decking, the edge guide hides fasteners on the edge of the board. The face guide fastens decking through the face of the board, and the clip guide is used with its EdgeClip to lay grooved composite decking.
More Powerful Pliers
If you’ve struggled to get a grip on short wires or to pull cable through an electrical box, compound-motion pliers may provide the extra gripping power you’re looking for. A few brands make them, but I’ve had the DeWalt long nose pliers in my belt for the recent electrical work I’ve been doing. You can find compound-motion pliers at home centers and online. This DeWalt long nose costs $15. It’s also available in a set (less than $40) that includes side cutters and lineman’s pliers.
