To effectively nail two pieces of wood together, follow these steps: Align the pieces of wood and hold them firmly in place. Choose an appropriate size and type of nail for the job.

Repeat the process with additional nails as needed for a secure hold.
In the industry, a carpet nail could be one of three things. #1 A reference to the tacks that used to be used to hold down carpet on a wood floor prior to tackless strip ( the 1" wide pieces of wood with pins on it around your walls). Or #2 A nail to hold down those 1" pieces of wood. Or #3 One of the sharp pins in the 1" pieces of tackless strip that hold the carpet onto the tackstrip. There is also a reference to " stay nails " in the industry. These are 1" concrete nails that are driven into the carpet to aid in the installation process and then removed when the installation is complete.
To securely fasten two pieces of wood together using a flat head nail, the most effective way is to first align the pieces of wood and then hammer the nail through both pieces at a slight angle. Make sure the nail is long enough to penetrate both pieces of wood and leave enough space for the head of the nail to sit flush with the surface. Additionally, you can use a nail set to countersink the nail head for a more finished look and added security.

Whatever you do be sure to not hit your fingers.
