Default Removing deep-set nails

and they look like they must have been placed with a nail gun, because the
heads are (say) 1/8" into the wood.

One method I thought of was some kind of drill bit that would drill out a
small circle, except it would have a hole where the nail is so the bit
wouldn't press on the nail itself.


The only way I know of is to get a pry bar behind the board and pull
the board and nail up until you can get at the head.
