If the work surface is made of wood, the procedure is as follows:
choose the place where the nail will be driven and mark it visually;
Do not hit the tool hard until you are sure that the nail has been driven into the work surface correctly;
do not hit the nail hard unless you are sure that the nail has properly entered the work surface; -hold the hammer by the edge of the handle when carrying out work manipulation;
to avoid injury, the nail should be held in place with a clothespin;
if the fastening tool must be hammered in a hard-to-reach place, you can connect a nut and bolt, and fixing them on the nail head, strike it;
so that the nail does not bend when hammering into the wood, its upper half can be secured with pliers;
to improve the penetration of the tool into the wood, its sharp edge can be lubricated with soap or wax;
Nailing wood products is quite easy, but what to do if the surface is not as malleable as wood?
If the wall is concrete, you need to:
visually outline the place of nailing the fastener;
with a hammer to create a cavity that should be half a centimeter longer than the length of the dowel;
Using a hammer, hammer the cartridge into the work surface;
Drive in a nail, keeping the required distance.
If the wall has a coating in the form of ceramic or tiled tiles, you must:
To mark the place of hammering visually;
Using a self-tapping screw on metal, lightly tap to make a small depression (about half a centimeter);
Using an impact drill drill drill into the tile;
After creating a hole in the tile, continue drilling, taking into account the material of the wall.
How to properly hammer a nail into a brick:
choose a place for the intended hammering - the best position will be the center of the brick, the mortar for it will not be needed as a support;
use an impact drill to drill through the brick;
hammer a nail into the inserted chuck.
If the wall material is plasterboard, then:
make a hole in the planned place in any way;
In the resulting recess install the fastening element and screw with a screwdriver;
Important: Do not use a nail as an attachment element in the case where it is planned to mount a heavy object.
Even such a simple matter as nailing involves knowledge of many nuances and compliance with technology. Therefore, it is important to learn how to hammer the fastener element so as not to damage the working surface, using recesses and other maneuvers of experienced craftsmen.
Tricks, tips and tricks of the masters that will help to easily cope with nailing:
Lubricate the sharp edge of the nail with soap or wax, this will make it easier to nail and reduce the chance of damage to the board.
Creating a tilt when manipulating will allow the nail to be more secure than if it were hammered straight.
It is important to remember that the diameter of the nail should not exceed a quarter of the board or other material.
If you follow the laws of physics, the hammer should be held by the handle so that the impact is the hardest.
The first blows on the nail should not have much force so that it sits in place, and then the fewer strong blows you make, the less likely the material will be damaged and the nail deformed.
If it is necessary to join two boards, then the first should be punched completely, and in the second to drive the nail in a third.
A beginner will help avoid injuring his fingers by using pliers or clothespins.
It is not necessary to hammer nails, placing them in a line, so increases the likelihood of cracking the board. It is better to hammer them in staggered order.
In order to avoid a dent in the board, you should almost hammer the nail down with a punch or a nailer. Direct blows with a hammer will not avoid a dent.
When hammering a nail by weight, heavy, large hammers are used to prop it up.
