Just about no one under 35 has ever seen a copper nail. The old hardware stores used to carry them, and we used to buy 100lb wood kegs.

Go to a hardware store that specializes in roofing.

It is getting harder to find.

BTW... you know how to make an electric pickle?

Strip a lamp cord , wrap one bit around a copper nail. the other bit in a galvanized nail.

Shove one into each end and plug it in...
