In this simple and short instructable I'll show you a safe way to hammer in nails without hurting your thumb or fingers.

All you need for this safe hammer and nail hack is a pencil with a rubber on the end.

Using a sharp blade, slice down the middle of the rubber (see image or video).

Place your nail into the rubber and hold pencil where you want the nail and hammer.

Your thumb and fingers are safe from pain and others ears from your profanity's.
