How To
Here are some tips on how to drive nails in wood
The first step in driving a nail into wood is to choose the correct size and type of hammer. The most popular types of hammers include claw hammers as well as mallets and ball peenhammers. Each type of hammer comes with its advantages and disadvantages. A claw hammer is best for hitting nails or hard objects. However, it can be difficult to pinpoint exactly where the blow will land. A sledgehammer is great for hitting large areas at once, but it's too heavy to use effectively for smaller tasks.
Once you have chosen the right hammer for you, put your hand flat against its side so that it rests comfortably in the palm of your hand. Hold the handle in your hand, but don’t force it too hard that you break. You should hold the hammer straight-up, with your wrist still relaxed. Then swing the hammer back toward the ground, aiming for the center of the nail. You should feel the impact of your hammer hitting the nail. You can practice swinging the hammer with a block or wood until you feel the rhythm.
You can now drive the nail by holding the hammer to your body. Position the nail, so it's perpendicular to the surface of the wood. Keep your eyes on the tip. Move the hammer forward and then continue to move the hammerhead. Continue this motion several times, slowly increasing the speed of each swing. After mastering the technique, you can add power to your swings. You can hold the hammer over your shoulder and forcefully bring it down. You will be able to use more energy and put your best foot forward.
After you have nailed the hole, take the hammer off the nail. To pull out the remaining nails, use a screwdriver or pry bar. You should ensure that the nails are flush with the board's surface to avoid splitting the wood.
