Oh very very fun! I've been wanting to attempt a set of sticks for myself, but I'm just not sure how to attach the metal to the wood.. hmm

I'm not sure what was used here, but I think Gorilla Glue would work. That stuff has bonded anything I've never bonded better than anything else I've seen before.

Gorilla Glue sound very exotic - I don't know if we have something similar here in Germany. I uses UHU, sometimes it holds, sometimes it doesn't

Thank you, I'm glad you like it .-)
I think this pin needs quite a lot of hair to rest safely in for it is rather long and heavy. I'm looking forward to trying it one day and I hope it will not fall out .-)
