70s)... lol. Groovy, man.Maxi

The tool is called a brad pusher. It's a hollow sleeve which is held up off of the solid rod of the screwdriver-like handle and held up with a light spring. You just drop a brad in the end and push it in with the handle. It handles a wide variety of brad/ small nail sizes.
sorry guys for me it was in the 80's....got my hemos (three different sizes)and a bunch of dental picks from a flea market. btw... the picks work really well releasing the connectors on cars wiring harnesses.
Yep - it's called a "cross peen" or warrington hammer.
How about a small magnet?

Mine actually served active duty from the 60s through the mid 90s.
Another reason I use the pencil is its length. If I need to put a nail (any size nail) a few inches taller than I can reach, the pencil and the hammer give me the extra "height." I just slap the pencil flat on the wall with the nail in position and reach the hammer up there to tap it partway in. Then pull the pencil down. The hammer takes it from there.
Told my husband about this thread and his first reaction was comb. So many clever ideas on this newsgroup. So glad to be here.

Hire one of Santa's elves, work is kind of slow this time of year and Mrs Claus laid some of them off, bitch.-Jitney
Have your mother-in-law hold the nails. Slam the hammer wherever you want.
Yeah! That is what I meant to say hemostat. What size is a mosquitos?
I called them by the wrong name. They are hemostats. They look like pliers with a crooked jaw and in my case really long handles. They come in a variety of sizes.
