Swivel hooks for wind spinners. Can anyone help me out?
« on: March 21, 2012, 01:48:35 PM »
So i just bought a barrel racing wind spinner off of ebay and didnt realize that it didnt come with anything to hang it with. They use swivel hooks that allow the spinner to spin without getting twisted or caught. I cant seem to find them very easy.... Ive looked on ebay but they're kindve high priced and i only need one. I figured it couldnt hurt to ask here if anyone had an extra laying around or could get me one...
 
Here is a pic for reference of what im looking for. "Image borrowed"

You can find these (or similar) at Lowes...in the hardware (?) section.  Near the chain cutting area in mine, there's a ton of drawers, you just have to look at the pictures on the front.  Should only cost you a $1-2, they come individually packaged.  I was hanging planters a couple years ago and ended up going to Lowes for the swivel snap hooks.  Hope that helps!

I would think a hardware store should sell something like that. Or possibly even a larger hobby/craft store.

The thing is that i dont live near any places like that and it would be atleast an hours drive for me to get there. It just wouldnt be worth it :( I checked the hardware store in my town but its just a small store so i wasnt really surprised when they didnt have any. There are a couple hardware stores in the town i work in that i can check out, i just hate running around all over trying to find something.
