In your back yard
Dave,
"Annular THD common nails or Anchorfast"
I get them from Swan Secure Products - 7525 Perryman Ct. Baltimore, MD 21226 (410-360-9100). Very helpfull when I was restoring an old Swift hydro. They will make any legnth, diameter or head size you want for a small up-charge. I didn't ask if they would make them with the anchors on the heads though. Fast delivery too.

Dave, Ace Hardware is awesome. I got my nails there for the old boat I built. They also have steering hooks etc. ACE RULES!Earl

This company sells the nails you need. Check the catalogue on page 30 and 31. It would be a good idea to identify the nails you need before your order them.

Acctually the nails with the anchor was gone off the heads back when Sid and Mickey was still building boats. Same looking nail but had the plain head.Destiny is a matter of chance,it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.Comment

Thanks folks, Frank ordered some today from Swan Secure Products (they're local and I didn't feel like driving to Ace
), hopefully I (we) can start the resto the first week in June. On the lighter side, I think Frank has become a looper (or is that loopy?) monster, an A, 2 B's and 3 C's, the scary part was last weekend when he bought the Sid he said to me "now that I have 2 boats we can both run C's at the same time" . Those cockpits sure are wide and the sides make up for it by being short
