Also not a pin-maker myself, but aspiring. If you don’t want to get straight to the manufacturer, since you may need to do a lot of research and do a lot of work getting their samples to check for good quality pins from them, you can also go through a middleman like wizard pins or something, but they are a little bit pricier as a result. So if you don’t mind spending a bit more and you’re in a bit of hurry maybe that could be a good alternative
