Protect Your Walls from Accidental Damage
Tired of putting dents or holes in your wall because you missed a nail with your hammer? Never again!
Next time, simply get yourself a plastic lid off a coffee can or an old Tupperware bowl. Drill a hole in the center that’s large enough for your nails to go through, then place this guard around the nails as you hammer them.
Now if your aim misses the mark, the plastic shield takes the blow, not your wall!
If you’re tired of sorting through piles of hardware to find the right sized nail, bolt, or screw, discover a simple (and cheap!) method of keeping them permanently sorted, on page 264 of FC&A's Fix It, Clean It, and Make It Last.
