I need to do some creative carpentry to fit openings in a larch lap

some nails by getting a new open trellis fence top 6'x2' and

dismantling it.
But where can more nails be sourced. These are bronzed corrugated

25mm x
2mm approx with flat tips instead of a point. Conventional types of

nails
with points always split the thin panel strips, and do severe damage

to the
thicker structural bits of wood as well. No nails like this are to

be had
in the sheds or at Screwfix.
The last resort is to use wood screws, which look a bit naff.

thanks

why dont you give us a pic, sounds odd to me. I half wonder if theyre
corrugated fixings rather than nails. Scrwefix do those.
