I bought a copper colored metal twirley thing at a swap meet – it had a pug cut out in the middle (there are stars, hearts, all shapes and kinds availalable). They also had a black one there – I now want the black one also and tried to find one at the Puyallup Fair but they didn’t have any. Does anyone know where you can buy these online? Or what they are called and/or made of – tin maybe. The are pretty flexible and beautiful when twirling.
I was given a pool with the metal poles that hold up the liner and the bottom ripped, and now I can not find the right liner for it. I am not even sure what type of liner it is. It is not beaded or overlap, it is the kind that you slide the top poles through the loops in the top of the liner and the pool is held up by the poles. The outside of the pool is also the liner.
By claymation, I mean stop-motion animation using children’s modeling clay.

What kind of wire do they use, and where can I get it?
