Wooden Toys Knowledge Base
Wooden toys? My nephew's woodwork class needs him to design and make a wooden toy, although he doesn't know what to choose. What kind of toy do you think? He's 15, so it can't be EXTREMELY hard to make.
How do you properly sterilize wooden childrens toys? My child was given some wooden blocks and etc. second hand. How would I properly clean/disinfect these toys without using harsh chemicals? Also, I heard that if wooden toys were kept in a place like a damp basement (which some of these were) that they should by thrown away since things like mold can stay in the wood, is this true? My child is still at the age in which he puts everything in his mouth...and yes they appear to be dirty. It would put my mind at ease if they were clean though...
How do I begin distributing 12,000 new wooden toys for income? Talk about a small business start up! What do I do now that I have imported wooden toys. The products are unique and well received by customers in a local market. But I have to get these items out in a larger scale. I have six months before I am broke. It would be nice to have a meager livelyhood by then. Do you have suggestions on how I can sell these products? Your response is very much appreciated. Thank You!

Where can I get a kit for making the chinchilla wooden play toys? Is there somewhere I can get things like the different colours of food dye, ready shaped wooden blocks, different wires and hook/clips etc? We are expanding on our chinchilla family and our 2 enclosures are huge and it is expensive to be frequently kitting them out with the wood chew toys from Pets At Home. I also buy pine wood from B+Q (often the scraps for 20p for a huge length of wood) and I make my own shelfs, runs, ladders etc. I will post a pic of my chinchilla cage in a future question as it is 6ft tall and i'm very proud of it! I had to modify it last week due to a surprise birth. I really wanted to buy a box of a few hundred wooden pieces (circles and squares etc with holes in the middle and different colours already dyed would be a bonus).
What would be the best way to make wooden toys for birds? I am the owner of a lovebird, Kaugummi, and figure I can save money by making him those brightly-coloured wooden chew blocks like they have at pet stores out of scrap wood. What sort of wood would be best/safest to work with? What would I use to colour them? Is this even a good idea? Any tips or ideas from other bird lovers and carpenters would be greatly appreciated.
Where can I buy good solid long-lasting wooden toys? Most toys these days are shoddily made and a total waste of money. Nothing is built to last. Can anyone help me find a company which sells toys which are built to last, preferably made of wood?

I was thinking of something like a wooden garage, he'd love that. Can anyone help?

Heres the deal: Im repainting a toy tricycle that my sister gave me, and I want it to be put outside, but I know that the rain will ruin it and the paint job. is there something I can "laminate" it with? Like a clear substance to put over the top of everything? If so, whats it called and where can i find it? Thanks!
Wooden chew toys for hamsters, do they cause splinters?? I've had my dwarf hamsters for about a year now, and they're FINALLY starting to use the wooden chew toys I bought them when I first got them. They're vigorously chewing the toys down, and there are now wood shaving everywhere. I try to clean it up as much as I can, but has anyone had any experience where their hamster got splinters from wooden chew toys?? Just being a bit paranoid as usual!

I only buy wooden toys? I have a 9 month old, and myself and my partner really believe in supporting small european companies to buy our toys, they always cost a little more, but we just buy less toys and they will last for ever! my daughter spends hours every day playing with them. I think plastic toys are expensive for what they are and also the companies that make them constantly get done for child labour! anybody else only buy good wooden toys, or are upset with the quality of plastic toys?

Lovebird Wooden Toys with colours? I bought a wooden colourful toy 2 months ago. And i did not use it till today. I washed it and the colours from the top drip to the bottom. I'm afraid if the colour (paint) contained lead or toxic. I heard some factory selling bird toys paint their toys with lead or any other toxic paints as they dont care. I dont know wether it is true or not. It's an online rumour. The toy is something like this http://www.jandd-pet-products.co.uk/images/Jungle-wood-bead-block-rope-10x27cm574652.jpg The green colour leak to orange, and etc etc. When i wipe the toy with a rag, the colour stained the rag. I never asked the seller for more details, but the bird store is a trusted bird store, alot of special/popular guests visited it. Thanks in advance.

How to make an Axle on a wooden toy car? I'm building an old style wooden toy car. The problem is I don't know how to make the axle run smoothly (since it's made out of wood).

Is carrying a real closed sword illegal? Is carrying a toy wooden sword illegal? I was planning my costume for Halloween, and I'm deciding if I could carry a real sword on my back, and of course.. it's in the sheath. It's about 4 feet total, the blade is around 3 feet. Also I'm wondering the same thing about a wooden toy sword, but it's not much of a sword to the point where you could hurt someone, just looks like it, without a sheath too. Oh, and I live in California. Please, and Thank you! The wooden sword is 3 feet, if that matters.
