Abstract
A clip for securing planar members, such as tongue and groove pine boards, panel boards and flooring, to wooden supports, such as furring strips. The clip is formed from a metal plate and has first and second portions struck out from the plate. The first and second portions both extend outwardly from the plate in the same direction. The first portion is angularly bent so as to form an L-shaped finger member capable of engaging a peripheral edge of the planar member to be secured to the furring strip. The second portion has a free pointed end and is angularly bent so that it can be driven back across the plane in which the plate lies and then driven into the wooden support member to which the planar member is to be secured.
