Apparatus for driving successive fasteners from a package of generally parallel fasteners flexibly serially interconnected in general row formation having a total virgin package weight greatly in excess of that which could be practically manually handled, the apparatus comprising a portable power operated fastener driving device of the type operable to be manually handled by an operator within a workpiece containing limited space, a rotary tray for supporting a coiled package of fasteners at a location spaced horizontally from the limited space within which the device is to be manually handled, and an elongated guide track of a horizontal extent sufficient to extend from the location of the rotary tray to the limited space within which the device is to be manually handled, the guide track being supported at one end in cooperating relation with the rotary tray and connected at its other end with the device for movement thereby in response to the manual handling movement of the device, the supported connection of the one end of the guide track being operable to accommodate any movements imparted to the other end of the guide track by the manual handling movements of the device whereby such manual handling movements can be accomplished by the operator while supporting only a proportionate share of the weight of the guide track and a leading length of the fastener package extending from the rotary tray through the guide track and into cooperating relation with the fastener feeding mechanism of the device.
