Since the toys I make are old style and could be considered for the

might be on thin ice with it but it's worth a look. Thanks to you
and baslisk for the idea

Well, I would think that you'd have to have a pretty big operation
to warrant any notice. In other words, who's going to complain?
As long as you don't poison anyone I doubt you'd come to anyone's
attention. Worst case, they'd probably just make you stop selling
if they ever did notice. I could understand not wanting to take
that chance, but I wouldn't blame someone who did. Again, assuming
they aren't using anything toxic, which I'm sure you aren't.

As long as nobody's kid manages to choke on a piece of it. It used to
be that if a kid choked on a button it was the kid's fault, or the
parents for not watching the kid--now it's the button-maker's fault
for not either making the button bigger or putting a warning label on
it.
