    I pulled apart my spare rotten Bally backbox so I can build a new one for my Apocalypse Now Redux. It looks like they used a long skinny staples instead of nails. Anyone know what is the correct tool for the job and where I can get it? I don't see one in Home Depot but maybe I overlooked it. Is that the best method or is there a better way? Since this is not a true restore, it doesn't HAVE to be exact.
    Thanks

    OK, so narrow crown is the term I am looking for. Thank you.
    The size is about 3/16" wide and about 1-1/8" long but I guess as long as I am close though I would probably want the correct ones for future resto projects.
