I use gorilla glue for my hooks too....but a gutter nail? lol..ok never thought of that. Aren't they aluminum? I do make some aluminum heads for some of my cage hooks and "indoor" use hooks. I like the light weight and agility. But while you are in Lowes or Home Depot, you might pop over to hardware and find the welding steel section. There you will find various sizes of still rods. For standard hooks, I use 1/4 inch steel. For Field hooks, I use 5/16 inch steel. I buy the 4 foot sections and cut them into four 1 foot rods. Bend them to shape and then grind the edge down on a bench grinder. They also sell aluminum stock in the same place of varying widths and lengths that work great for making cage hooks. Gutter nails might be cheaper though. That aluminum stock is pretty expensive. I may have to check into that for the cage hooks.
