How To
Here are some tips on how to drive nails in wood
First, choose the right size and type of tool to drive a nail through wood. Claw hammers include mallets, claw hammers (sledgehammers), mallets, ball-peen hammers, hatchets, and mallets. Each type of tool has its advantages and drawbacks. 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 is useful for striking large areas at once but too heavy to be effective for smaller 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. Grab the handle tightly, but do not squeeze too hard. Your wrist should be relaxed while you hold the hammer straight upwards. Then swing the hammer back toward the ground, aiming for the center of the nail. You should feel the impact from the hammer striking a 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. To ensure that the nail is perpendicular on the surface of the wooden floor, position it. Keep your focus on the tip of each nail. Swing the hammer forward, and then move the hammerhead. This can be repeated several times to increase the speed of your swing. Try adding power to your swings when you've mastered the technique. Try holding the hammer above your shoulder and bring it down forcefully. This will help you put more energy behind each of your moves.
Once you've made the first nail hole, take out the hammer. To remove the remainder of the nails, you can use a screwdriver/pry bar. You should ensure that the nails are flush with the board's surface to avoid splitting the wood.
