ABSTRACT:
The fastener-handling tool disclosed is for the purpose of assisting in the starting of pointed fasteners such as nails, brads, tacks, screws and the like in instances where it is difficult or impossible for a person to hold the fastener conveniently between his thumb and fore-finger while driving the fastener with, for example, a hammer, screw-driver, etc. The tool comprises a one-piece molded elastomer element in which the handle part of convenient size has attached thereto a slender finger which is of substantially reduced cross-section and which has a hole at its free end for receiving the fastener. A slot leads cross-wise to the hole to enable the finger to be separated from the partially-driven fastener in a direction radial to the fastener. By way of an added feature, the handle part includes a pin cushion for carrying a supply of fasteners.
