Anyone make their own field/target points?

islandpiper:
Can you still buy "scaffold nails" or "form nails" . ?   We used to get them in 16 d size.   they have a regular head, and about a half inch below that, another head just like it. Made so a carpenter can drive them in, hard, and still pull them with a bar easily.   Seems like these would be the cat's meow for making nail points.   Cut off the last head and still have a nice stopper to butt up against the end of the arrow, some iron inside and some outside for the point.   How does that sound?  piper

Cromm:
Sounds good to me, I will use the power of google to see if they are still making them. :D

Bone pile:
Those nails are a mainstay in the concrete busness,I allways called them "double headed " nails any construction supply ought to carry them

 You beat me to it, Roger. Grandpa had a ton of them around the house from Bricklaying.

napper:
They are called duplex nails and thats what I do when I need a field point you can put them in shoots shafts if you can drill a good hole.  Tom
