I've always wondered why people dink around with nails instead 
of just buying a hundred of these things for about $4, 
splitting the order with three other techs, and everyone will 
have a lifetime supply. I've probably replaced a dozen or so 
in 30 years, and only found one instance where the thing 
wouldn't work because it was shorter than the original.

They make pretty good tooling locater pins too (even rivets), 
if you're one of those (us) depraved souls who builds jigs and 
such.
