- If your lumber isn't as dry as you would like when you purchase it (over 22% in Glen Huey's opinion…probably over 10-15% in my opinion), then it's a good idea to let it acclimate to your workshop for a couple of weeks. (woodandshop.com)
- The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates that the number of jobs for woodworkers will decline by 4% between 2019 and 2029. (indeed.com)

How To
Tips for driving a nail in 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 kind of hammer has its own advantages and disadvantages. A claw hammer is best for hitting nails or hard objects. However, it can be difficult to pinpoint exactly where the blow will land. Although a sledgehammer can be used to hit large areas quickly, it is too heavy to be useful for small tasks.
After selecting the right hammer, you will need to place your hand flat against one side of the head. The handle should rest comfortably in your hands. Grip the handle firmly, but don't squeeze it so tightly that you hurt yourself. The hammer should be held straight up with your wrist relaxed. Next, swing the hammer toward the ground and aim for the nail's center. You should feel the impact on the nail from the hammer. 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. To ensure that the nail is perpendicular on the surface of the wooden floor, position it. Keep your eyes focused directly on the tip of the nail. Swing your hammer forward. Then follow through with the motions of the 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. Hold the hammer high above your shoulders and pull it down. This way, you'll be able to put more energy behind your blows.
Once you've made the first nail hole, take out the hammer. To pull out the remaining nails, use a screwdriver or pry bar. To prevent splitting the wood, ensure you keep the nail heads flush against the board's surface.
