Look Ma, One Hand!

Wrangling rebellious deck boards that just aren't quite straight comes with the territory when installing a deck. This struggle with warped boards is magnified when you're flying solo on a job or taking on a DIY project.

And if you're trying to tame those warped boards with a pry bar or chisel... well, what can we say? Don't. There's a better way, and it's the Hardwood Wrench Jr.

The Hardwood Wrench Jr. is one of the most advanced board straightening tools ever created for edge-groove and face screw board fastening. With a rotating cam that can dish out an impressive 1,100 lbs. of force, this tool is all about bending boards into submission and making your deck board installation a breeze.

Say goodbye to the struggles. Say hello to the tool that provides you with what DeckWise calls "One-Man, One-Hand Installation." Call it a superpower if you want. We do.

Easy as 1-2-3

Using the Hardwood Wrench Jr. couldn't be easier. Start by setting your deck boards in place to install hidden fasteners or face screws.

When you encounter a rogue board, position the Hardwood Wrench Jr. onto a joist (it plays nice with both single- and double-joist configurations). Slide it up the joist so the locking cam touches the edge of the warped board.

Now, effortlessly swing the handle upward to lock the board into a straight position and ta da! You're free to continue installing deck fasteners without frustration, delay... or a second set of hands.

1: Place the Hardwood Wrench Jr. tool on the joist.
