How To
Here are some tips on how to drive nails in wood
It is essential to pick the right size and style of hammer before you can drive a nail in wood. There are many types of hammers that you will find: claw hammers and sledgehammers; mallets; ball peen hammers; and hatchets. Each type of hammer comes with its advantages and disadvantages. A claw hammer works well when you're trying to hit nails with a heavy hammer. However it is difficult to precisely control where the blow hits. A sledgehammer allows you to hit large areas simultaneously, but it is too heavy and cumbersome to use for small tasks.
After choosing the right hammer, place your hand flat against the side of the head so that the handle rests comfortably in your palm. Grip the handle firmly, but don't squeeze it so tightly that you hurt yourself. You should hold the hammer straight-up, with your wrist still relaxed. Swing the hammer back towards the ground, with your aim at the middle of the nail. You should feel the impact on the nail from the hammer. Try practicing with a block to help you master the art of swinging a stick.
When you're ready to start driving the nail, hold the hammer in front of you close to your body. Place the nail so that it is perpendicular with the wood's surface. Keep your eyes on the tip. Swing the hammer forward, then follow through with the motion of the hammerhead. This can be repeated several times to increase the speed of your swing. Once you have mastered this technique, increase the power of your swings. Hold the hammer high above your shoulders and pull it down. This will allow you to exert more energy.
Once you have successfully drilled the first hole in the nail, remove the hammer. To remove the remainder of the nails, you can use a screwdriver/pry bar. Keep the nails heads in line with the surface of the board to prevent splitting the wood.
