Hob&Jill 258 Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 (edited) Why metal? Abit over kill isnt it? They look abit big and heavy too. 15mm doweling, cut to 4.5", sharpened one end with hole drilled through the other. Small, light weight and stick like shit to a blanket lol Edit, I also use hazel but dowel is a good (if not better) alternative if you have non seasoned.

Shouldnt be to hard to make them yourself I wouldnt think, need a sheet if ali and a hacksaw or angle grinder. Quite alot of of effort for a few pegs though. Quote Link to post
