i used £.16 nails just make sure they haven’t got no rust on them and before you dip them lightly put some warm oil on them.
You can put them on a small piece of wood like four or five or 10 or whatever and dip them all at one time.

Thanks. I took a couple pieces of fencing tie wire which are around an 1/8" & dipped a couple Yellow & then redipped the heads in a black grape junebug & they looked great after i ran them through my home made tail cutter. I'll more than likely be making a few blocks with rods to dip several at a time.
