Abstract
A hand tool that allows a user to properly align a wall stud relative to a top or bottom plate and, without requiring assistance from another person, to retain the stud in alignment while nailing the stud to the respective plate. The tool is compact and can easily be carried in a tool pouch for instant retrieval when needed. An additional feature allows the tool to be employed as an aid to move the finished wall frame to its proper location.
