ABSTRACT:
A nailing tool and method for driving nails into structures in an environment in which limited space in line with and behind the nail prevents contacting the nail with a hammer. The tool comprises a metal bar having two mutually perpendicular slots extending axially of the bar from one end such that one of the slots extends transversely of the bar in a spaced relationship to a striking surface comprising one sidewall surface of the bar and the other slot extends perpendicularly from the one slot to a sidewall of the bar that is opposite the striking surface. A nail is supported in the tool with the head in the one slot and the shank supported in the other slot to extend forwardly of the tool perpendicular to its axis. The nail may be driven into material adjacent the enclosed space by placing the slotted end of the tool and nail into the enclosed space in alignment with the material to be penetrated and then bringing a hammer into contact with that portion of the striking surface of the tool that protrudes from the enclosed space.
