These joists are 2", not the normal 1". The Hardwood Wrench is made to expand, with the simple moving of a pin, that allows it to fit the larger joists. I did look at other products and this is the only one I found that could adjust. Great idea! I am in the prcess of installing a deck over existing joists. These joists are 2″, not the normal 1″.

Works especially well with this as you need to push the T&G tight together. 1078lbs of max force sure makes this a lot easier than other methods i have seen. I would strongly recommend a hardwood wrench to anyone installing decking. We build a lot of covered porches with T&G Ipe.

Not only does it save me time installing bowed boards, its saves me money since I have less scrap boards. After trying it out, I ordered 5 more to make sure each of my crews have at least 2 on the jobsite at all times.
