How to keep from hitting the wrong nail.

Hitting the right nail
Hitting a nail with a hammer seems like an easy thing to do! For a lot of people it is easy to hit the nail, unfortunately it's a finger or thumb nail that they hit.

Even experts can't drive nails correctly all of the time. If you look at carpenter's hands you will probably notice that one or two fingernails are black.

One way to eliminate this condition is to find someone that will hold the nail for you. Good Luck with that!!!

Restoring Hardwood Floors

Restoring your old hardwood floors to a like new condition, will bring back their color and shine. The basic steps to do it are very simple and usually easier than most people think.

You don't have to rip the floor out and start over again, unless when you step on them you fall through the floor. Which has happened to me on more than one occasion. But these floors were well past any hope of reclaiming. Most floors are just in need of a little T.L.C. Most people think that they have to sand the floor before they can refinish the floor. The only reason to re-sand a hard wood floor is to remove deep scratches or stains from the hard wood floor surface such as a grease or oil, lacquer, or some other stain that can't be removed except by sanding it.
