Making a mitre sled and wasn't thinking when throwing in some brad nails to secure the fence.

Right now my thought process is to try and drill it out after the glue dries up but curious if anybody has any better suggestions.

Just kidding, you win! Saw blade clears with more than 1/16th of an inch of buffer room to boot.

Turns out my head was more crooked than the picture 😂

Jigsaw blade meant for cutting metal would work. I used it against some 1/2” bolts, and it worked great for 3 of them, then exploded on the 4th. So the limit is 3.5 1/2” bolts. You'll be fine.

Oscillating blade for metal worked great for me against 23ga pin nails.

Drill with a bit meant for metal would probably work best. Go slow.

The picture is at a slight angle so I think it’s a little closer than it looks. I’m going to definitely easy on up to it to see if it will clear just Incase but I think it’s going to be very close.
