Jaceymae says March 12, 2023 at 5:26 pm Where can I find enough pinning nails to do a 30G rootball? I’ve looked everywhere and all I see is a huge amount for over 100.oo. Need asap. Thank you. Reply
Mike says March 13, 2023 at 8:32 am Jaceymae, You probably won’t find them in a quantity smaller than 50lbs. If you were close I’d give you some. You can use any skinny nail with a head, but they are not rounded and hard on your fingers. But I recently purchased a pair of hog ringer pliers to see if I could use hog rings instead of nails. That way the customer won’t get stuck by the nails. Years ago that wasn’t an issue, but today, you know how people are. But I haven’t tried them yet. https://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-P7DW-Hog-Ring-Pliers/dp/B00I7PCF3K/ref=asc_df_B00I7PCF3K/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309813767497&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10554763542020969838&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9015287&hvtargid=pla-343408307972&psc=1 Reply
