    This might be one of the funniest and most useful videos I've found on RUclips. Thanks for the help and the humor!

    After an hour of pulling staples with pliers and a block of wood for better leverage I found your video. One quick trip to the hardware store and my back and wrists are thanking you.

    Brilliant idea. Really works. Plus, by the time a project goes to hell and you have to go to RUclips for help, a funny video helps cut the tension.
    Worked on an 80 year old hardwood floor.
    Thanks!!!!

    This worked amazingly well. I am reupholstering a chair and I used the end cutters. Some of the staples were too close to the wood to get a grip on so I used a nail tack lifter to raise them a bit then pull them out with the end cutter. Nice.

      @@SethTerwilliger haha OK anything plumbing related, especially trying to fix a leak, with crappy CPVC pipe, typically found in Maronda homes, they are cookie cutter homes and I had 2 pipes burst in cold winters in Pittsburgh, and they crack and break so easily if you apply too much pressure... plumbers hate them, I hate them, everyone hates them !! 😂😂

  • @NA-nf2vt
    @NA-nf2vt 5 лет назад +3

    I found that a hammer + the grip end of a file works as good as the end cutters. By grip end, I mean if you buy a file set, the handles come separate and on the files you have a narrow, thin piece that you're supposed to insert into the grip. I put that, under the staple, tap it a couple times, jerk, tap again, and they come out. This works better for staples that aren't high enough out for the end cutters to grip. The other problem with end cutters is they can cut the staple and there's that little bevel at the edge so it's harder to get staples that are closer to the wood. All I know is I can't f'ing believe how many staples some a******* used to attach that 1/8" whatever to my sub floor. A TENTH the amount would have been sufficient. It's so f'ing strenuous trying to pull these out. It should be illegal.

    After watching this video, I went out and bought an end cutter plier. While it seems to work well, about 30% of the U-shaped nails are breaking while pulling. This creates a huge problem because once cut, there is no way to pull them out. I am looking for ideas on what is the best way to use these pliers to pull out these nails.

    • @SethTerwilliger
      @SethTerwilliger  7 лет назад +1

      +kryptik0 It seems like you are gripping the nail too hard. Try less pressure and more leverage to pull out the nails. Lmk if that works!

    • @kryptik0
      @kryptik0 7 лет назад +1

      The problem is the cutting edge of the end cutters. It would have been useful to have a blunt edge.

    • @SethTerwilliger
      @SethTerwilliger  7 лет назад

      Very true! My end cutters are old so that's probably why they worked better.

  • @mandytucker2507
    @mandytucker2507 3 года назад

    Only problem is that the staples aren't that high up which makes them easy to remove. I want to know how to remove those staples that have been hammered in the wood without damaging wood step.
