These things are superb for fixing decking joists & timber.

I second this after taking your advice and buying these -
pretty expensive - but very VERY strong and do the job just fine


And if you're after a recommendation for the screwing the deckboards
down I'd suggest these:

They do exactly what they say on the tin and worth every penny. Even
after 400 of the little buggers I was still smiling. Okay, maybe a
slight grimace but that was more from backache...

Hope to finish mine this weekend :-)
