Reply to comment by [deleted] in help getting rid of nails in the concrete by koalateasweety

A $20 Harbor Freight angle grinder with $5 in cutting wheels will do the job 3x as fast and with 1/2 the effort.

I mean— minus the whole driving to a harbor freight part. OP already has a hammer.

My solution is free, and as a tip it’s generalizable, and something a lot of people don’t know— if you blow through trim with an 18 or 15 gauge brad, bending the nail back and forth until it snaps is a lot less destructive and easier than trying to back it out with a set and hammer.
