gregtrem Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Just came across a really lovely nail sample in the mastermyr find book, which is somewhere in the 10th or 11th century, and the nail is a spiral shank at the terminal end, fades to a round shaft at the head. The header block in the find is likewise made for round shanks. Apparently the Vikings went in for complex nails!

Jim Coke Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Greetings All, I read an artical in a 1895 publication on how to make a horshoe nail... Thin tapered nail with a diamond head all formed on the anvil without a header... I tried a few and found it very neet... Try some...
