ABSTRACT:
A fastener supply includes a collated strip of fasteners having laterally extending ears. The fasteners are held together by spaced, parallel, preferably flexible elongated carrier strips, adhered to the ears. A magazine feeds fasteners to an inclined or tilted position in a drive station of a fastener driving gun. The apparatus is manipulated over a lug so that the lug extends through a fastener to be driven and engages a locating surface for gun and fastener alignment. Fasteners are rotated, as they are driven, from the inclined to a perpendicular position with respect to the lug. Methods of driving are included.
