Abstract
There is a tool configured to tack a coupling device to a surface including a handle configured to permit a user to grasp the tool. The tool also includes a shaft member coupled to the handle and including a spring-loaded mechanism, configured to provide a force to tack a coupling device to a surface and to release the coupling device to the surface. In addition, the tool includes a head member coupled to the shaft member and configured to receive and hold a coupling device head in preparation for tacking. The head member includes a head body, a magnet disposed within the head body, and a socket member extending from the head body and including a curved socket bottom adjacent the magnet and a rim having a beveled cross-section; wherein the head member includes a gap between the magnet and the coupling device.
