Abstract:
A method of installing trim employs a Snap Tack fastener which allows the trim to snap on and off when needed. The Snap Tack includes a ball head screw which snaps into a small plastic receptacle. In a typical application, several ball head screws are screwed into the back side of some floor molding. The molding, with the screws in place, is pressed against a wall where the molding is to be fastened. Enough pressure is applied to have the ball screws leave small indentations in the wall. Holes are drilled at the indentations, and the receptacles are installed in the holes. The molding with its screws can then be snapped into place and later removed when needed.
