[Mr_I]

While we've been lucky enough to find a small cache (6) of them in local stores (and are scouring the region for more), we've also been pondering making our own.

Perhaps this might plant a seed of thought: We're wondering if we can find a plastic jug (gallon or 1.5 gallon, maybe from a bleach bottle?) that is about the right size, and then slice it on a bandsaw to 1" strips. Finding such a container might make it easier to make, since A) you could use 2 or three rings whole, B) the plastic is already round, and C) the jugs might be readily available and essentially free.

Happy hunting!
