Can one pull out a nail with a hammer?

#1  Postby paarsurrey » Mar 05, 2010 4:02 pm

Hi friends Non-Theists and Theists

I think one cannot pull out a nail gone completely inside the wood with a hammer. Humans need proper tools to accomplish a job.

Do you agree with me.

Thanks

I don't know if I could get the nail out by pulling it, but with a hammer I would get that nail out of the wood eventually, well, what's left of it anyway :D

I'm sure I could use the back end of a claw-hammer and whack it in behind the nail then prize it out.

It's nice to have proper tools to accomplish a job, but not absolutely necessary.

For example: The infamous hard cover book as a "straight edge", or the ever popular "pencil as a level" (if it rolls, the surface is not level)

Hi frined XiledSpawn

I agree with you; but if it is a beautiful teak-door, you may spoil it. Why not take a proper tool and do it easily? Intelligence demands that proper tool should be used.

Thanks

Nice to have you here paarsurrey, why don't you open up a welcome thread for yourself here, New Members.

To your question, I definitely have removed nails from wood gone below the surface, the back end of the hammer ca be used to prize it out, even if its embedded in the wood.

Now how does this equate to non-theism, or are you just looking for DIY tips? :)

He means that the whole nail has gone in, with the head embedded just below the surface.

Hi friend Animavore

I agree with you; if there is a claw end on the other side of the hammer; it is wise to use it.

Thanks

Thanks, I didn't think I'd read to the end of the thread without someone pointing out the bleedin obvious, and I was right.

Oh. In that case, just knock it in a bit more and put a bit of filler over the top. Job done.

Is this the DIY tips thread?

Awesome.

So presumably you want the thread moving then, since it appears to have nothing to do with the section you put it in?

Yip I think that would be the smart move. Hammer it further in with a screwdriver, nice and clean. :)

Hi friend HughMcB

Thanks for welcoming me.

For Ethics, Morals and Spiritual guidance the proper tool is Word of Revelation from God Allah YHWH. The Mill of the "Scientific Method" is a clumsy tool in this connection.

Further, Quran does not claim to be a Book of Physics or Chemistry or Biology etc; it is for guidance of the human beings in matters Ethical, Moral and Spiritual. It is very much mentioned in the very first chapter of Quran.
