What happens here

This project aims to compare the holding strength of two common nailing methods—nails driven at a 10-degree angle and toenailing—for joining a vertical wood stud to a horizontal wood plate. The creator first demonstrates how to apply toenails with a nail gun, then physically tests the integrity of pre-built joints for both angled nailing and toenailing by attempting to separate the wood pieces using force.

We got a test. We got nails straight through the top plate. We got nails through the top plate at a 10° angle. And then we got toenails. That's 10°. This is doing pretty good. This is toenail. Toenail definitely hold the best. This 10° was pretty good, too.
