| Forgot what this is called, thin metal piece that connects 2 wood pieces together.
I'm trying to connect two piece of wood together.
It's a thin piece of metal (that looks kinda like a cheese grater) with sharp spikes.
You hammer it in so it holds both piece of wood together...
anyone know what I'm talking about?
I can't find pictures of it... cause I need to know what's it called before
I can do that.. lol

Note that these are secured to both pieces of wood by nails, and you generally use one on each side - the little spikes won't hold it into the wood by themselves.

I actually only need one. So I'm not interested in bulk buying. Quote:

Thanks! | lol, I'm not doing anything dangerous that could have killed me.
This is for a project where I need a thin metal plate, but I'm not sure where
I can get a thin metal plate... I figured something like this would work the same though. Quote:

I think Truss Plates, Connector Plates, Nail Plate, Gangnail Plate, all work. Quote:
