Have you ever wanted to punch a hole in a mason jar lid? It can be frustrating if you don't have the right tools. I'm going to teach you how to use basic tools like a hammer and nail to puncture your mason jar lid so that it lets air flow through it. So get ready and let's get started!
To punch a hole in a mason jar lid, you'll need a nail, a hammer, and your mason jar lid.
You'll need a hammer, a nail and a mason jar lid to punch a hole in your mason jar lid.
The first step is to decide how big you want the hole to be. This will determine how long your nail should be. If you want it to be small, then use a shorter nail than if you wanted it larger.
Next, using the hammer, hit the end of your nail until it punctures through both sides of the lid at once (but not too hard). Then pull out one side of the lid with pliers and trim off any excess metal from inside it with scissors or shears so that there's just enough room for water or whatever else needs to go into your jar!
You can puncture a mason jar lid with basic tools.
The first thing you need to do is find a strong nail. This can be done by looking for one that has been used in construction and then discarded, or by finding a stick that is particularly large and heavy. The next step is to place the nail on top of your jar lid, making sure it’s centered as much as possible.
Now, grab hold of your hammer and strike down onto your nail like you would if you were trying to drive it into something else solid (like wood). You should hear a cracking sound as soon as contact between hammer and nail occurs—this means that they are now stuck together! If all goes well with this process, congratulations: You just successfully punched through a mason jar lid with nothing but tools found around your home!
Now that you know how to punch a hole in your mason jar lid, you have a whole new world of possibilities. You can use this trick for so many things, including hanging flower baskets and making little centers for your next buffet table. The options are endless! Hopefully this post has given you some inspiration on what to do with those extra tools lying around your house—and hopefully we’ve inspired you to get creative with them too!
