  • Publication number: 20240181614
    Abstract: A nail-driving tool has a working end with a front face. The working end defines a nail aperture that has an axis along which a nail driven by the nail-driving tool travels. A first guide is formed by a recess in the front face that is configured to align the nail aperture with a nailing strip of a siding component. The first guide engages with a surface of the siding component that is a set distance from the nailing strip. One or more protrusions extends outward from the front face and spaced from the nail aperture, the one or more protrusions being configured to be received within a nail-receiving slot of the nailing strip such that the nail aperture is aligned with the nail-receiving slot. The one or more protrusions and the axis are intersected by a line that is perpendicular to the axis.
