ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides fasteners that have surprising benefits, such as the ability to be set into a fixing hole by gentle pressure, for example thumb pressure, and remain in place without holding until hammered fully home, and the ability to maintain the proper alignment upon hammering. Also provided are methods of attaching one object to another object, using the instant fasteners.
