Howdy, a couple of years back, I worked for a guy who had a handy little gizmo for pulling bottom plates of walls in to nail them to the floor.
We called it a wall peavey. Not sure if thats what it’s called or not.
Very simple, it consisted of of 14″ or so flat bar, with a hook you drove into the plate, drive the bar into the floor and pull, PRESTO! wall is sucked in to your line and away you go! I thought Proctor Products made it but I went on their site and couldn’t find it. Anyone got any ideas!
Thanks and have fun at petefest! Casey Murphy
