Abstract
A device for automatically presenting fasteners in a predetermined disposition comprising a container for the fasteners which presents the fasteners to a rotary drum which raises the fasteners upwardly for deposit into a chute. The fasteners are fed down the chute to a ramp which positions individual fasteners in a predesired position in a feed barrel for receipt by a fastener tool. An escapement mechanism is positioned between the chute and the ramp so that a single fastener at one time falls down the ramp into the feed barrel.
