The board support element has a flat support surface projecting perpendicularly with respect to the front face of the elongated member, to receive an edge of a construction board. A spring mechanism is provided for rotatably biasing the board support element about the rotation axis towards a central angular position where the support surface is perpendicular to a main axis of the elongated member.
