Would Not RecommendWe put the piece to join two 2”x6” pieces of board. When we started to hammer it down, the tines bent and did not go into the 2x6. It was a waste of my money!
The work once you are able to get them in place and hammer 1 side. then as you hammer the other side the first side lifts up
