Abstract
An apparatus (1) for frame fabrication includes at least one nail gun (15) adapted to fire nails substantially in a selected plane of the frame (2). The nail gun (15) translates vertically and is configured with a control input device (19) activated by an operator which extends substantially across the width of the frame fabrication apparatus.
Claims2
An apparatus for frame fabrication, said apparatus comprising:
- a controller adapted to control at least one of:
- at least one nail gun;
- at least one nail gun mounting;
- at least one primary clamping surface;
- at least one secondary clamping surface;
- and
- a control input device to be activated by an operator, said control input device extending across more than a half of the width of the frame fabrication apparatus and arranged for triggering the controller upon activation by the operator,
- wherein the control input device is a control bar that is configured to be lifted to activate the apparatus and to trigger the controller and to fall back to its original position under gravity thereby deactivating the apparatus.
