A nail punch is a tool used to drive nails below the surface of wood, often used when installing trim or skirting boards.
The referenced video briefly describes its use:
- A nail punch is used to drive nails in further, particularly when you're close to finishing driving a nail into wood.
- It's useful for situations like installing skirting boards by hand.
- It allows you to drive the nail head slightly below the surface of the wood without damaging the surrounding material.
In summary, a nail punch helps you finish nailing without marring the surrounding wood surface, allowing for a clean, professional look.
