I'll do more tommora.
Might use the grinder with a thin cutting wheel and pop the tops off those bent nails.... they're all alternating biting angles anyway.... so even cut off like that those boards won't loosen ever. :D (I might just leave a little meat on em anyway)
 
I did pre drill.... beautiful looking nails, but only a short drill bit lol
and, yep, food all year flowers, but, only when you grow what you'll eat lol..... there have been times of learning over the years... and I'm still learning now with it all as I go.

Mebbe you should have pre drilled the holes to give them a start into the wood? :(

Yep :Y: the only way to make sure you succeed with hardwood :beer: even with nails. You must be bald silver :p all the old blokes I've ever seen drive a nail would comb it through their Rockabilly hair doo to coat the nail with a bit of brylcreem first :playful:

I went for the spit on the tip so's it'll get a fine coating of rust to help bind it to the timbers over time :p

Try putting a sledge hammer on the opposite side of where your hammering?
 
Put mango leaves and trunk in(late yesterday infact)
eldest son was dragging branches for me :Y:
it was a main branch against the fence... summer wind and the movement of the tree would'a affected the fence for sure... so it had to go. :perfect:
