Toy making suggestions

Postby Sabby on Sun Apr 13, 2008 9:06 am

I'm planning on makimg my own toys for my B&G and Too. I have already bought a
2x2 board and pvc to drill the holes in to hang the 1x3 pieces on. What can I use to thread the wood on? I bought a 100% cotton clothes line and a spool of natural sisal from Home Depot. I was also looking at 900ft. of natural Jute from Hobby Lobby. I still need to find a place that sells nickel plated chain to us to hang it. I have the aluminum clips. Is this all safe? What do you use to string the wood blocks on? :idea:

I buy these, they are cut, come with links, cant beat pricing and have them in 2 days of ordering! We make all our own toys for past 20 years.
