    Default Idea for a nail puller

    I was on Facebook and after watching this video, I want to see if you think this would make a good nail puller for pachinkos before making one.

    The corkscrew nail pullers I make only last 2 or 3 machines before they brake.

    Interesting idea.

    Though I haven't had an issue with our modified corkscrew puller. We have done countless machines with 1 of them (10+) and have yet to have it break in any manner.

    I recently just made another from an ikea corkscrew simply so I can have another one. Only used it on 1 machine so far but hopefully it will stand up well.

    100 machines and counting...

    Yup, I'd agree. Even though I don't have a pachinko (and thus any such nails nor reason to pull them ) I from the first view also thought of a slightly smaller-scaled version of the same thing for the task...mebbe 3/8" dia outside tubing and 1/8" threaded rod or somesuch. The tricky bit would be fabricating the necessarily also smaller 'fork part'...?

    Problem is I just can't find good corkscrew pullers anymore!
