The production of wooden nails involves a careful crafting process
. Artisans typically select high-quality hardwoods such as oak, hickory, or maple for their durability and strength. The wood is then cut into the desired shape and size, often tapered to fit snugly into a pre-drilled hole. When used in construction, the natural elasticity of wood allows for a holding power that can rival metal nails, especially in applications where flexibility is required.
