How to make a four-way AND gate using only NAND gates?

Take two NAND and put a NAND at their output connected a as NOT gate. Then take another NAND and wire the output of the two NOT gates to its input. Finally, wire a NAND as a NOT gate and put it on the output of the last NAND.

I can ONLY use NANDs.
No NOT's (unless I am getting your statement wrong).

Ah, alright.
We say, "inverter" over here.
Communication gap, etc.

I'm going to start making that now, but can someone give me a picture of what it should look like?

AHH!! Got stuck!

What? What two Not gates... Here's what I have so far...

Sorry about picture quality... Had I saved it to another format you'd probably wouldn't want to download it because of the size.
