We are going to install a number of metal nail plates in our house build. I put my fabrication and welding skills to work and built a 20-ton press that will drive nail plates into structural wood members. Truss plates, nail plates, nail repair plates are all similar in function and need to be installed properly to do their intended job. Anyway, a few pieces of salvage angle iron, bolts, rod, springs and a hydraulic jack provided another useful machine and part of the vision.
