How To

How to drive a nails in wood

To drive a nail into wood, the first step is to select the right size and type hammer. There are many types of hammers that you will find: claw hammers and sledgehammers; mallets; ball peen hammers; and hatchets. Each kind of hammer has its own advantages and disadvantages. A clawhammer works best when hitting something hard like nails. However, it can sometimes be difficult to see exactly where the strike is going. A sledgehammer allows you to hit large areas simultaneously, but it is too heavy and cumbersome to use for small tasks.

After selecting the right hammer, you will need to place your hand flat against one side of the head. The handle should rest comfortably in your hands. Hold the handle in your hand, but don’t force it too hard that you break. Hold the hammer straight up, keeping your wrist relaxed. Swing the hammer back towards the ground, with your aim at the middle of the nail. You should feel the impact of the hammer striking the nail. Try swinging a hammer using a block wood to practice until you are comfortable.

The hammer should be held close to your body when you are ready to begin driving the nail. Position the nail, so it's perpendicular to the surface of the wood. Your eyes should be focused on the nail's tip. Then, swing the hammer forward. Next, follow the motion of your hammerhead. Continue this motion several times, slowly increasing the speed of each swing. Once you've mastered the technique, try adding power to your swings. Hold the hammer high above your shoulders and pull it down. This will help you put more energy behind each of your moves.

Once you've made the first nail hole, take out the hammer. You can then remove the rest of the nails using a prybar or a screwdriver. To avoid splitting the wood, make sure the nail heads are not touching the board's surface.
