Here's the story:
The Extractor was invented in Charleston, SC to aid in the restoration and renovation of historic homes in the area, The importance of reuse and recycling of the old lumber and moldings in this business cannot be understated to preserving the original architecture and value of these antiquities. A tool was needed that could remove fasteners without bending or cutting the exposed material during removal, especially when dealing with brittle antique nails. During a renovation project the amount of fastener removal that is required can be extensive and time-consuming. Whether pulling finish nails on-though molding so that the trim can be reused or just trying to remove a headed nail that has seen better days, frequently a fastener must be gripped and pulled. Using traditional pliers, front-end nippers, and other grippers usually results in the snapping and sheering of the nails. The nail extractor, with it’s parallel, self gripping jaws remedy these issues allowing a job that would have taken a considerable amount of time to be completed in a fraction of the time with better results.
