I know the right answer is NONE...
But I need to hang a bunch of Safety Zone signs around my land. The trees are nothing special, but I don't want to harm them more than necessary.
What's the best flavor of nails to use? I've heard some metals can be quite toxic...copper in particular. What's the best type to use? Steel, Galvanized, Aluminum, Stainless (not sure I can get them long enough), decking screws? Does it matter?
In any case, I'll make sure to leave them sticking out enough to remove if I cut any for firewood.
I bought some heavy laminating pouches for the signs...I'm hoping to get 10 years out of this set...my wife thinks its more of a science project!
