Ring...shank...nails......holy cow...how on earth did anybody remove them?! (thoughts of them tenaciously gripping and resisting being pulled out come to mind)
The ring Shanks are tough, but the little copper wires that hold the nails together for the air nailer are the real challenge. Either way the experience is far from pleasant. In that particular case we clipped the nails between the hand and the board, and let the emergency room staff handle the rest.

My hubby nailed his fingers together with a 16 penny nailer a few years ago. He was doing some framing work, and the nailer bounced on the first nail & popped the second through his index & middle finger & punched into his ring finger just a bit.
He pulled it out, cussed about it, let it bleed & went on his merry way.
Already had a current tetanus shot, so not much else to do about it...
Can you tell I'm getting used to him hurting himself??
