They still make square nails, some are used in horse shoes, others are used by finish carpenter to prevent splitting

I've got a box of new never used square nails that came from Virginia across Tennessee to Missouri in the tool box on the side of a wagon in the 1830s. They can be used at any time. Fact is, Kiln dried Cottonwood or Hackberry is some very hard and dense wood that should work quite well for what you're doing. It's chraper than Oak.

Round nails manufactured from steel wire coils were introduced around 1890….those are some old nails you have there friend

You might know this but settlers when moving would burn down their cabins and collect the nails because they were only made by blacksmith who were only in bigger settlements.

That’s so cool. Finding old stuff like that is always exciting. I’d just band the block and keep using it.

My parent’s house was built in 1890, and they bought the house in 1948. In 1957 the house was remodeled. Some of the wood from original construction had square nails like the ones you showed in your video. I have no idea when the square nails were no longer used.

Banding sounds good. Somewhere in my childhood treasures I found some of these 60+ years ago.Thought they were cool at the time, even had some square spikes 6".

Early to late 1800s depending on when they were used. I've seen barns that were built in the 1920s with square nails (guess someone had them saved). Still a cool find.

Correction to some other comments on here, they absolutely made square nails in the 1920s those you have there are “cut nails”. Very common in the 20s and even into the 30s the only reason round nails became more popular is because they are cheaper to make, square nails hold much better depending on the project someone back in the day would have chosen one or the other to better suit the application, I’ve seen square nails on bigger stuff from the 1930s not sure when they stopped making them commercially, also they almost never used square nails in the horse drawn wagon/ carriage trade so it really depends on what the nails came from. It’s best to date the wooden structure or item if you can, in your case I would say probably close to 100 years mabey more Keep in mind I’m talking about cut nails, forged nails could be pretty dam old

I would pt a bunch of construction adhesive in the cracks and use some timber lags or bolt through them. I was actually thinking when you were struggling to find blocks why not laminate some 2x material

I keep catching my wife watching your videos before I get a chance to. I’m not very happy with her..😂

I think you can still get square nails. They call them cut nails now. They use them on solid oak flooring. If they are forged square nails you have something there. They could have been made by a blacksmith on his anvil.
|
I've drilled and used all thread with washer and nuts counter sunk on both sides .😊

Best Wishes to everyone at Anderson Construction..

just bought some squares last year. hardware store still sells them. on my cribs I put it in the press and hammer pronged truss plates on the ends
|
A blacksmith said Willamsburg,VA paid him to make square nails for restoration projects. He said he would make a 100 every morning to warm up.
|
I’d try some long bolts n washers to reinforce the block, bet she’s got lots of life left with a lil help, might be better than new even!
|
Square nails can still be bought but not used for construction just fancy lad period furniture.
|
We drill thru our crib blocks and all thread them with nuts and washers other ends put up to 50-60 ton on them no problem yet

Band it for quick temporary repair. Run all-thread through them, where needed, and countersink the washers and nuts for a more permanent fix. There is nothing wrong with these blocks--they just need a little TLC...
