But not as well as a drill bit
Practice your hammering technique, cheap 3d nails bend easily. Dave
Thanks, Eric. Much better than a rejoinder from me.
That being said, I do know some people do not like them. A friend I loaned mine to recently did not like it when installing shoe moulding. As is said, YMMV. -- Igor
Yeahbut the difference in the way a finishing nail will drill in and the way a bit will drill in isn't worth the mention.
You CLEARLY don't know what you are talking about here.

try cutting the head of a trim nail with side cutters and chucking it in your drill, The nail will drill fine and the hole will always be the right size. -dave
Here we go again, Actually better than a drill bit in small sizes. The small drill bits tend to load up with debris and you have to clean them out. This is not a problem with spinning a small nail.
