ABSTRACT:
An apparatus which incorporates a generally rectangular framework for receiving a supply of sheet plywood for cutting into individual strips, with each strip converted into a carpet-tacking strip. The apparatus receives and stores a supply of sheet plywood which is individually cut into a plurality of similar or identical strips. Each strip has a bevel on one edge. A number of nails, preferably in two files, are driven through the strip so that the point emerges from the backside. These nails provide a gripping means for engaging the carpet. Additionally, a number of nails for nailing the strips to the floor are inserted, at least partially, through the board from the opposite side. The apparatus simultaneously and consecutively forms a plurality of strips.
