Nail stuck in wood? Use this tip to pull out Ram the claw of your hammer into the nail shank and rock it sideways using the claw edge as a pivot point. Repeat the process until you pry out the nail. This technique produces maximum pulling power with little stress on the handle.

Rest the hammer on a small block to protect finished surfaces. For a straight pull, size the block so the pivot point is as close to the nail as possible.

Drive the claw of a cat's paw under the nailhead and lever it out. A cat's paw can even reach buried nailheads.
