For all 1/16 scale track pins, you can use classic garden wire (diameter 0,8mm).
You can find this wire easily (Hardware stores or google).

Anyway, its not easy to cut 200 pieces of wire with the same lenght.
If you dont have wire, or you dont want to cut wire - leave message here or on support@warprints.xyz
I have builded my own wire cutting machine for this.I can cut wires for you, fast and cheap.

Okay that is inspirational. Would love to see a build vid on that machine alone :-)

This was one of the first tests of that machine.
As you can see, there is one smooth rod and one threaded rod, for the cutter.
Now i have two smooth rods and one threaded rod in the center.
Have added box for electronics, reworked program and the machine is much faster now.
I can make some pictures of the new setup, maybe.

I didn't think it could be interesting for anyone, but this video with machine is one of the most viewed video on my channel, so its here...
Its very important machine for me, but i can share STL files for this, i think.
Anyway, design is not even close to my tanks.It was designed very fast, without love.
I have no documentation or instructions for this.
It was just a one-time project.

Track pins are available on my eBay store now.
There will be still some track pins in the stock.
