TEST time! Toe nails VS Nails thru plate 💪

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Using a Milwaukee M18 FUEL Framing Nailer, the creator assembles one of the wooden frames. This involves placing two vertical wooden studs between two horizontal wooden plates. Nails are driven directly through the top horizontal plate, penetrating vertically into the end grain of the studs below. This demonstrates the 'nails through plate' method of fastening, with several nails applied to each joint for strength.

Goal: Construct one test frame using the 'nails through plate' method.

Tools and materials

  • Nails — Fastening the wooden frame components together
  • Wooden Plates — Horizontal components of the frame (e.g., 2x4 lumber)
  • Wooden Studs — Vertical components of the frame (e.g., 2x4 lumber)

We got to test this. We got toenails and nails through the plate. Which one's going to hold up better?
