All About Nails

[@avithegreat3]

As someone who makes hand forged nails as a hobby, I entirely support and appreciate this video.

[@alissonmatarazzo9038]

Id buy your nails, I'm a manual carpenter/ woodworker. Making rustic furniture for 2 years and so far so good! Are you perhaps in Canada? Big cheers

[@avithegreat3]

@@alissonmatarazzo9038 I'm in the US, in Arizona. You can contact me on my Etsy shop. I don't have them currently listed, but will make a listing for you if you ask. etsy.me/38GTUPp

I totally love nails too. I have my great-grandfather's nails, my grandfather's nails and my father's, I have my own Nails after working at the hardware store. I'm revealing my secret love of nails too. You looked bashful when you admitted this . I can assure you we're not alone in this. When I build a piece of furniture using the old-fashioned Nails I always get a positive feedback comment. I'm watching your video because I want to see if I can figure out not to split the wood so hopefully that's a just remember you're not alone. If you want to hear about the screws that are put inside bodies to hold hips and knees together I'd be happy to share my knowledge

Found a ton of cutnails when ripping up my floorboards and i was SHOCKED at the holding power it literally blew my mind cause ive always been joinery first. So now im going down the nail rabbit hole

Popular Woodworking The wright translation for nails is “ clous “ Not : ongles ..

Thank you for sharing! Working in California I have been in the carpentry and construction world for near 50 years and I have never seen in the field any of the forged or cut nails! Thanks again.

[@logankincade661]

Because all the really old construction in California is gone, or still standing. You would have seen them if you worked in the north eastern part of the U.S.

I use forged nails but I make my nails imgur.com/gallery/jE9o7j4 I haven’t been in it long because I’m 15 but forged nails are great

[@Tome4kkkk]

@Eddie Espinosa Yes, it's 2017 and we have a clear distinction between a cutters&assemblers and carpenters. The latter know when to use nails.

[@totherarf]

A bit disparaging about some of those nails! I was told that angling the nail away from the vertical would increase the holding power (especially if you use different angles). Also you missed out the ubiquitous oval nail and the old trick of flattening the point to stop splitting without drilling a pilot. Some of those small headed nails can be completely hidden by cutting a sliver into the wood, nailing and then gluing the sliver back over the nail! Having said that it was a good informative video and gets my thumbs up!

[@OpekiskaWood]

More about nails, please!

[@bye92]

Amazing video!!

[@scottnice1638]

So helpful. Thanks Chris!

[@alissonmatarazzo9038]

I love nails !

[@nicholascremato]

Where can you buy those machine forged nails that are about 5 cents each? I have searched everywhere and I can't find them?

[@Mrbdnakagstatus]

I've been searching and I can't seem to find any. Rockler has some but not the exact

[@sarahhorting8212]

This is so helpful. Thank you! :)

Nice.

[@TheFedster18]

Did Chris clip his beard and cut his hair or is this a 3 years old clip?

[@MatthewBuntyn]

Federico Calboli He did get a trim before the Lie-Nielsen open house, but this is a clip from the "Build a Hand-Crafted Bookcase" video

[@donnysandley4649]

Wait 🙄a cut nail doesn't need a pilot hole if you know how to use the grain pattern right 🤔

[@thebigcheese8715]

I despise finishing nails with a burning passion, they're only "good" for one thing whilst other nails do the job better.

[@kaunisrumilus]

I honest to god was looking video for our finger nails and thought this could be it

[@jasonhenn7345]

Crucifixion nails🤔

[@eddieespinosa8743]

This is 2017 and we have fantastic screws

"Christopher Schwarz (the long-time editor and now contributing editor to Popular Woodworking) has been writing this woodworking blog continually since 2005. He covers the world of hand work, plus he writes about building furniture, visiting tool makers, and his travels. Long a woodworker of traditional techniques, Schwarz is dedicated to restoring the fine hand woodworking skills that have slowly disappeared from woodshops in the latter half of the 20th century. He is a firm believer in the role traditional tools play in the modern shop." Notice that he focuses his work on traditional woodworking. If you want 2017 woodworking watch Norm Abram.

[@misterhat5823]

As soon as he mentioned needing a pilot hole for nails I thought the same thing. Except he's going for a certain look and a screwhead is not it.

[@andrewgarratt5191]

You are 100% right Eddie...however if you are forced to make a living teaching office workers how to fuck up a wooden box for $10,000 worth of lie Neilson soaked investments you really want to keep the subject matter so far back and so obscure that your audience is almost forced to come to you for your bygone,obsolete, and replaced systems. Everyone needs a job.
