kept up with the stuff in years..... Any recommendations on a couple
of useful nail pullers for mild to wild recycling? Thanks in advance,

for that job i would get a good flat bar with a thin but not too thin
blade

get the flat bar between the fence board and the fence post or rail
and pry a little

the idea is to get the nail head to lift away once you get some leeway
pulling on the fence board can help as long as the nail is loose
otherwise you leave a bigger hole

then you can grab the nail head with a claw hammer and wood block

seems to me you want to minimize damage as much as possible

good steel for cats paw or flat bar is required not too hard and not
too soft
