It would seem that it's easier to score a nail?! And you need to do anything: the hammer, a nail, tree and hands. But for some reason the board is split, nails are bent, and the fingers are injured. Or maybe they just need to be able to score?
This summer, the builders from the Kostroma region worked at the cottage. The way that elegantly and skillfully appealed to the hammer, and brought me to the tempting thought to take their experience and describe some interesting ways of clogging nails.
It should be noted that this process largely depends on the size of the nails: small it is more convenient to score with a small hammer (up to 250g), and more than 80-100 mmm-hammer weighing 400-500g. Start to intolets slightly, and making sure that the nail is incorrect, finally hammer with two three sharp blows. So avoid the split of the tree and get a sturdy connection. Adle greater durability Select a long nail included in the main part of the design at least one third. Nails driven at an angle to each other will ensure the stiffness of the structure.
So that the board does not split in the process of working with it, the diameter of the nail should be no more than 1/4 of its thickness. When driving in a thin plate, it is necessary to fasten the nail, pre-catching the tip of the nipples. He doubt and break the fibers, but not a split wood. It is well known that the nail is easier to enter wet wood than in dry. Augting it into birch boards is a whole problem: Nuts, and in the tree does not go. True, there is a very simple way: Hold the nail with pliers. This will help when working with dry solid wood. Adopted boards up to 10-12 cm width to nail in each place of attachment, greater width, two, taking into account possible deformation during drying. When it is necessary to use several nails, they are not robbed in a straight line, but in a checker order in two or three rows.
If the connection location is on weight, then a massive hammer performs as a support. When you need to score a nail into a wooden, spring plank, which is impossible to rest on the bottom, instead of the hammer it is better to use the clamp and with it to press a nail into the bar.
When you need to drive into the edge of the boards, you will pre-drill the holes with a diameter of 0.8-0.9 from the diameter of the nail. In the absence of a drill at hand, weave the wood, making a displacement to be dent. It will keep the boards from cracking.
Knowing some tricks, you can easily score a nail even in an uncomfortable place. Apply a small wooden bar as a guide, along which the hammer handle will slide.
There are several devices for finger protection from shocks. Wooden clothespin with pointed climb sponges will serve as a reliable guarantor of injuries. It will be successfully replaced by a narrow strip of paper, folded twice. In addition, she keeps a nail there, where neither hand, no other tool, for example, in a narrow slot. A comfortable design is simply made from an elastic wire with a diameter of 1.5-2 mm, bent it so that the nail is inserted into the spring clamp. It is possible to cut the socket in a wooden storage, which fixes the nail and protect the fingers from bruises.
For hard-to-reach places there are two ways to "safe" clogging of nails using simple devices. The first steel rod and the metal tube in which the nail is invested. So that he entered in the right direction and did not bend it, inside the tube it is fixed by pieces of foam rubber or crumpled paper. The second one hundreds of the bolt turns into the nut not until the end, taking into account the placement of the nail hats in it, which can be secured by plasticine in the nut.
Score a subtle nail in an uncomfortable place at an angle is not the task of the lungs. It is especially difficult to "push" it. In this case in plasticine, insert the nail under the desired angle and take care gently. There is a way out, even when the left hand is busy, - the nail can be scored and one right. To do this, hold it between two fingers and applied the hat to the hammer. Pressing the hammer, first "nag", and then score.
It's not a secret - in the fine plywood partition the nail will not hold on. What if there is a need? Drill a hole in the wall, the diameter of which should be less than the diameter of the nail, and bend it in the form of a snake. Insert a nail into the hole (this will require effort). However, it should be noted that on such a "hook", driven into plasterboard, it is impossible to hang anything heavy (it will only withstand the load of up12kg).
In working with the clap we recommend using galvanized nails, there will be no rusty sublishes. If these are missing, then you can apply ordinary: Gang up hot and lower in flaxseed. A film is formed on the surface that protects them from oxidation, rust formation and facilitating the rigging process.
In order to prevent you from the final surface processing of the surface, give it a hat with a sideways and "clutch". If there were no special wallpaper nails, they perfectly replaced the combination - the stationery button + nail.
Speaking on the other side of the board of a nail through a triangular file and hammer in the form of a hook, after which we will drive. (For information: The end of the nail should be 1.5-2 times longer than the face of the file.) Another original advice is to use the hammer for these purposes with a hole in it for the nail.
If you need to pull the nail from the board, without damaging the surface, put under the nail or ticks a wooden bar or a piece of rubber tube. The magnetized needle on the thread will help to take a deeply joined and cuff-sleeve nails. It should be smoothly moved along the board at a distance of 1mm from the surface, it will reject and accurately indicate the location of the nail.
And in conclusion, several "finds" associated with the hammer nozzle. Hole for the handle has small cones. So that the handle is hard with the tool, it is crushed. Usually, the wedge orient on the longitudinal or transverse axis of the hammer hole, but the handle is quite quickly loosened. The best effect gives a wedge, scored diagonally. It is possible to use a steel wedge, which is cut into three pen up to half, and the extreme and central sharpened in different directions. When smoking in the nest, they diverge in different directions and are firmly fixed in it.
Dogwood, but good and birch, are considered the best tree for the handles of the hammers, but Ryabina has been used for the arms of blacksmithing Molotov.
