From kiwi_picker on 7/24/2013 1:53:13 AM

Hi all,

Have decide to put some railroad spikes in my banjo, does any one have any spares or does anyone want some, if I am going to buy some I may as well get a few extras.

Cheers

	skybiker says: 7/24/2013 7:47:39 PM Yep I've got some too. let me know how many and where to send. Have you Any tips on fitting them ??
	banjonz says: 7/24/2013 8:41:30 PM There is a correct technique on fitting them. You need to know what you are doing so you don't stuff up the fretboard . acousticbox.com/spike.html. This webpage shows you how to do it properly

	skybiker says: 7/24/2013 10:09:54 PM Thanx for the link banjonz, though it is now <acousticbox.com/Spike%20Instal...Video.htm> where I found 2 really useful informative videos. Kiwi picker. I hope it goes well with Mr Glyn 5 bucks per spike sounds like a bargain. I'm too far from AKL to go there and I have most of the gear to do it so I shall.

	hbfaust says: 8/28/2013 1:35:22 PM Hi there, first of all make sure the raid road spikes are the mini kind ha ha, and I have put my own in several banjos using this method; get a pair of needle nose pliers to hold on to the tiny thing in the desired location, then bang it in with a hammer :-D
	hbfaust says: 8/28/2013 1:38:04 PM Hi all, just another mention that there is an Oldtime music facebook page in case anyone would like to join up, facebook.com/groups/otminz/649..._activity
