Are different amounts of force needed to pound nails into different kinds of wood?
Yes. Woods from different trees have different densities and also grain characteristics affect the force needed to drive nails. Driving a nail across grain requires more force than driving a nail into the end of the grain in the same piece of wood. Other factors also affect the force needed to drive nails, including the dryness or age of the wood.
