Toy making suggestions/groups...
 

Hey all,

Is this the place to discuss making toys?
Any other groups? Anybody want to talk about toy making here?

My mind's eye is to make a small set of angel wings and halo for my 6
year old niece. I think it would be really neat to use real feathers
for the wings. (she doesn't seem to be allergic)

I'm pretty good at wood and metal working but I need to spend some
time roaming some craft stores like the Michaels chain, etc.

as long as there is some wood involved, yes.

you'll probably get some responses on that one...

I don't see any wood here...

how about some nice crisp curlies from a bench plane for the feathers?

Be glad to discuss toy making anytime any where. Do mostly batch runs of
toys but also quite a few one of a kind items. Try to stick mostly to mid
1800's style items.
