A Viewer Request, the nail header is a pretty simple tool that hasnt got enough attention. The nail header can be made quickly and in several different sizes and is a great project for a beginner.

Since watching this video I have embraced inner peace, taught my dogs origami and learnt to divide by zero

Divide by zero, huh. Please explain. As a middle school math teacher I would really like to know this amazing new math you have discovered. PLEASE? With whipped cream and cherries on top?

@@thomasarussellsr Your problem is that you're only using the one math. If you embrace the joy of the multiple, maths, you can perform feats unimagined by others.

I've only made "used" nails if ya know what I'm sayin'. It's obvious now where I went wrong making my header years back. Thanks Trent!

Nice work mate. If you dunk your header with the finished hot nail in it in the slack tub it will pop out easier

Those punches can be made out of mild steel like he’s doing in the video but as he said the won’t last over time. Another option without buying new tool steel is hitting flea markets and garage sales for the bucket O tools of various Allen wrenches old files chisels pry bars and what not, you won’t know what alloy tool steels they are but forge them out and un-heat treated they will still hold up significantly better than mild steel. Old car coil springs are another great source and again don’t worry about heat treat as that will also be tougher than mild steel

I find making nails to be a good way to just waste time in the forge. It's kind of entertaining to see how fast you can make them.

Going from how hard square nails were to pull during my childhood in the 1970's, square nails hold much better than todays round nails. Almost as well as screws. Almost impossible to pull.

Especially when used in a clinch nail fashion, where the tail was folded over to clamp the boards together. The door on my roughly 200 year old out building was built with double thick boards and clinch nails. It has gone crooked over time and doesn't want to be straightened at all. The nails refuse to be pulled. Then again, maybe the building was crooked when this door was made to fit and the door was built crooked to fit the opening? I'm not sure a 12 gauge shot gun would penetrate this door at point blank range, to be honest. Two layers of 1 1/4" solid oak with a layer of some kind of animal skin between the layers. I'm sure the nail holes had to be drilled before nails were put through as I don't believe nails could have penetrated this door simply by hammering with what they had for nails in that day and time.

Okay, but how do you rehead a nail that the head has popped off of when pulling it from a pallet to salvage the wood and nails for a future project? The nails are round and cylindrical in shape. How do i get them to hold still so I can upset them enough to start a new head on them?

Why not just use old coil spring for the punch? We’ve all got tons laying around. Comment for algorithm gods

Other than being true to the blacksmithing gods, is there a reason not to just drill a starter hole then finish it with the punch?
@purgatoryironworks
@purgatoryironworks 3 жыл бұрын
Its a rare case of its easier to punch. If you drill, the edges will not get square easily. Ask me how I know.
@veteranironoutdoors8320
@veteranironoutdoors8320 3 жыл бұрын
If you drill the hole then drift square its easy to leave “quarter rounds” on each flat, remnants of the round drill hole. You have to drift it a suprising amount to make the quarter rounds go away and usually will end up with a bigger square hole than you intended.
