ABSTRACT:
An embodiment of the present invention is a hand-held tool for use by a construction worker and comprises a top plate, a main drive assembly with a return spring, and a demountable-wall drop tube insert for receiving a belt of clips. The worker places the tool flat along one edge of a wall panel with one hand and mallets an exposed end of the main drive assembly with the other hand. The resulting forward motion of the main drive assembly snags a single clip from the drop tube insert, separates the clip from the belt, and drives a barbed end of the clip squarely into the wall panel.
