thank you, Erick

You should be able to find the wire brads at a good hardware store. Personally, I staple the door in place. Makes it easier to get into later if needed.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

The 1914 and earlier KW coils use brads. I don't know about the other brands. Check with RV, he knows for sure.
