Abstract: A one piece steel device is provided to hold landscape lumber, such as railroad timbers and the like, in fixed proper relationship. The body is triangular in shape, to be driven into the ground by the point of the triangle. The opposite end extends in two flanges which are separated by a support shelf. The support shelf and the center line of the triangular body may be bent through any angle, the support shelf preferably comprising two pieces meeting at the center line extending outwardly from the base of the triangular portion. The triangular body is driven into earth, after bending the article along its center line to the angle two adjacent pieces are desired to be held at. Each timber piece is secured to one of the flanges by driving retaining members through holes provided in the flanges in or through the lumber.
