He Attaches Staples With A Cordless Drill
After he got tired of trying to drive staples into some iron-hard hedge posts in his fence lines, Steve Atkinson, Salisbury, Mo., came up with a much easier way. He uses perforated metal hanger straps, screws, and a cordless drill.
  The straps are about 1 in. wide and thin enough that they can be easily bent. Atkinson uses a tin snips to cut 3-in. lengths, leaving a small hole near each end. He places the straps over wire and against the post, then runs 1 1/2-in. screws through the holes placing one screw on each side of the wire.
  “It works great. The screws go into the posts surprisingly well,” says Atkinson.
