With brass (tin and zinc) wire, cut into lengths, form head and sharpen point.
To hit nails into things mostly. Shocking. Seriously: to hammer iron and steel without damaging it, as brass is softer.
COPPER- alloyed with zinc it makes brass and alloyed with tin it makes bronze.

Brass is commonly used to make trophies because it is a durable and sturdy metal that can be easily molded into various shapes and designs. Additionally, brass has a shiny and attractive appearance which gives trophies a prestigious and elegant look.
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, which makes it more malleable and easier to work with than pure copper. The addition of zinc gives brass enhanced workability, corrosion resistance, and acoustic properties that make it a popular material for crafting musical instruments.
The method to separate steel nails from brass screws is called magnetic separation. Since steel is magnetic while brass is not, a magnet can be used to attract and separate the steel nails from the brass screws.
Some nails are made of copper or brass. Also, some nails are galvanized to protect them from rust. There are also aluminum nails--they're used with vinyl siding and aluminum trim coil.
Although US one-cent coins (pennies) were once mostly copper, today they are 97.5% zinc with a copper plating. Copper nails are rare due to the metal's malleable nature, but zinc nails can be plated with copper as are pennies. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and is widely used.

With a magnet. It will only pick up the steel.

Use a centrifuge. Magnetic separation will not work if they are brass nails.
Nails were historically made of iron by a local blacksmith. Nowadays, most nails are usually made in factories from steel wire, although they could also be made of aluminium, brass, or many other metals.
No, most nails are ferrous, meaning they contain iron. This is because iron is a common and cost-effective material for making nails due to its strength and durability. Non-ferrous nails, made from materials like copper, brass, or aluminum, are less common and typically used for specific applications where non-corrosive or non-magnetic properties are needed.
