Obviously barn boards can be gotten from an old barn but if that's
not easy to find any sawmill can provide you with rough cut lumber
and at a cheaper price than finished lumber.  I have used this route
to build things a little less expensively and with a bit more beef
to it (a rough cut 2X4 is just that 2inches by 4 inches!).  Anyway
get what you need and then just let it sit out in the sun and
weather and in a few months you will have beautiful gray boards
for your project!

I know there are places that sell old nails but off hand nothing
comes to mind.  Maybe someone else will have an answer.
