> 3 dayThese things work great! I love the variety between the different heads so you can find just the right one. I had some framing nails that were poking up through the top of my banister and this hammered them home quite easily! Now I have to fill and paint the holes but thats to be expected. They are easy to hold onto and easy to use, even kind of fun. Im actively looking for nails that needs to be hammered away at haha. Recommend without reservation

> 3 dayI ordered this Punch Set with low expectations since it just didnt look like it would have the power to get the job done. I am pleased to report that they do actually work! I was able to remove a stubborn door hinge pin with several cycles of the device without having to resort to a hammer and nail. I also had success with setting a small finishing nail. The ability to punch a drill set point in metal was less successful but it did still make a small indention. If you need a heavy-duty setting tool this may not work for you but for lightweight work its great.

> 3 dayLast time I had to remove the hinge pins from one of my doors I had to unscrew one of the hinges from the jam to get the pin out. I tried the same pin with this and about 6-7 strikes later it was out! This definitely beats going at it with a hammer and center punch or similar tool, especially for hinges that are in difficult to get to places. I tried the nailset on some 16 and 18 gauge nails and had so-so results. There is no doubt that a hammer and regular nailset is quicker and drives the nail farther, however in places hard to reach with a hammer this could prove invaluable. Besides that, my only real complaint is that the grooves cut into the part you hold onto are kind of sharp dont feel good in the hand during use. Otherwise, theyre worth having in your toolbox.

> 3 dayI had seen these things for a couple years now and wasnt too sure if they would work as well as they were advertised. Boy was I wrong. These and great and I couldnt tell you how many times I have made an excuse to use them since I got them in the mail. I have used them to knock door hinge pins out, set brad nails in trim, and a few other things and they have been fantastic, no issue whatsoever. These are a great gift for that DIY dad or friend you have in your life.

> 3 dayI’ve never been good at using the old fashioned type of nail set - steadily hold the point of the punch on the exposed finish nail head with one hand and then tap the punch gently, but firmly, with a hammer held in my other hand. It seems that about every third strike of my hammer happens just as I allow the punch to slip off the nail head … and so I end up with a hole gouged in my work piece right beside the nail head that is still sticking up out of the surrounding surface. Bummer! So when I discovered this spring loaded nail punch I decided to give it a try. The result of my first test is shown in my photos. I short 3 nails into a scrap 3/4” thick board. Two of the nails were slightly proud of the surface and the middle one was just flush. If I were painting this, all three would need to be set slightly down into the surface and filled with putty or filler. Using the spring loaded punch I struck each nail head about 3-4 times as I learned how to use the new type of nail set device. I managed to get the left two set down just below the surface (as desired), but on the far right one I let the punch slip off the nail head and wound up with a divot beside the nail. So although the process seemed strange (since it was my first attempt), this spring loaded nail punch did accomplish its task just as good as the old fashioned type … 2 out of 3 were set nicely … and the third managed to get an extra hole beside the nail head that will need to be filled along with the nail hole. Hopefully I can improve my ratio of good hits with additional practice. As for the door hinge pin removal tool which is included in this set of 2 punches, although I didn’t test it, I think it would perform its task very well and without any risk of scarring a door with a hammer knocking out the hinge pin using a standard punch.

> 3 dayKeep It Simple Stupid! Nice, simple, strong tool set that should be in your tool box. These offer just the right amount of force and delicacy for nail setting and hinge pin removal. A few snaps and you will set your nail head below the wood or remove your hinge pin without marring or damaging the surrounding wood.

> 3 dayWas actually quite fun to going around punching in finishing nails that my cordless didnt get the whole way in due to a dying battery. This thing works great.

> 3 dayI liked the concept of this style of nail set in theory would be slightly more comfortable and efficeint than the traditional style but in reality i find it to be quite the opposite. Less comfortable to use in the hand and functions the same or less efficently than your traditional nail set.
