What's a good way for a guy like me who's not a locksmith to find commercially made security pins? I know the large manufacturer-specific pinning kits often have spools or serrated top pins in them, but I don't need hundreds of pins. I've made my own spools and serrated pins with varying success with a Roto-zip and files/hacksaw blades. I would however like to be able to buy a smallish quantity of well-formed pins that I don't have to chase across the room several times when they slip out of the chuck while I'm hacking on them.

I know http://www.clksupplies.com/ has some? Never ordered any myself though and I'm not sure who they sell to. It does look as if anyone can buy them though.

Check eBay. I've seen sellers that have small amounts of spools and serrated. Assa spools are one there too.

Yes I've used CLK Supplies several times. They will sell to anyone and bags of pins are only a couple dollar's.
