How To
How to drive a nail through wood
The first step in driving a nail into wood is to choose the correct size and type of hammer. 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, for example, is the best choice if you need to hit nails hard. However, it's not easy to know exactly where the impact will land. Although a sledgehammer can be used to hit large areas quickly, it is too heavy to be useful for small tasks.
After you've chosen the right tool, hold your hand flat to the handle so it rests comfortably in one of your palms. Take the handle and hold it with both hands. But don't press down so hard you injure yourself. The hammer should be held straight up with your wrist relaxed. Now, move the hammer towards the center of the nail by swinging it back. The impact of the hammer hitting the nail should be felt. You can practice swinging the hammer with a block or wood until you feel the rhythm.
Hold the hammer near your body until you're ready for the nail to be driven. You will need to position the nail so it is parallel to the wood. Keep your eyes focused directly on the tip of the nail. Then, swing the hammer forward. Next, follow the motion of your hammerhead. Continue this motion several times, slowly increasing the speed of each swing. When you are confident with the technique, add power to your swings. Try holding the hammer above your shoulder and bring it down forcefully. You'll have more energy to work with.
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. Keep the nail heads parallel to the board's surfaces in order to avoid splitting wood.
