Otherwise they are useless to me.
NEED SOME OF THOSE LITTLE EARPLUGS AS I USE MY PINS AND GET STUCK A LOT where did u get them...WHOOPS..didn't know i was captalizing..someone said that was the same as yelling....lol
I've been stuck one time too many with the yellow headed, flat pins. They HURT ... and yes, I'm yelling ;-) But I still use them. Will have to buy some of the glass head pins.
