This type of metal fastener is suitable for softwood indoor joining. Corrugated metal
fasteners are sharpened on one end. Position the two pieces of wood together to form a T
joint. Use a clamp or block to push the joint tightly into position before using the
fasteners.
The fasteners should then be positioned parallel to the cross piece length
and well in from its edge. Two should be positioned side by side to cover half the flat
timber and half the cross piece. When in the correct position, tap the fasteners evenly
into the wood. Hammer them from the middle until they are flush with the surface of the
two woods.
