Fan Pulls: Help

eej713 · #1 2009-08-15, 5:23am

I'd like to make some fan pulls for my house. I've created a bunch of pendents, but I'm not sure how I would put them together. Are there special findings I need to buy? I've gone looking at what they sell in the hardware store, but most of them involve a hole through the center and I've not done much mandrel work............plus I have a ton of pendents made to use for key chains and necklaces. Any help would be appreciated.......Lynn

there was a bulk buy not too long ago. I would check the thread and contact the organizer....however, these are the bead style. The only thing I can think of for off mandrel style are wire cages.....sorry I wan't too much help, but I am not a boro person (yet)

There's a website - www.ballchain.com - that has some fan pull hardware. Look under "Attachments" and you might find what you're looking for (or something you could adapt to work).

Thanks, I think the Type A Connector may work for me....I'll check out the hardware store to see if they have any in stock before I have to order a 100 of them in order to try them.

I always seem to miss out on "bulk" buys, seems to me I was looking into this early this year and missed a buy.
