Hi! I've been out of the teddy bear making business for too many years. Back then, I used to use plastic discs with a washer and lock on (supposedly) cap.
I am going to be making real fur bears. I want my bears to be ultra-posable, so the joints aren't too stiff, but not so wobbly that they lay there like a dead fish. The bears I will make will be in the 4"-5" range. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I should use for joints, as well as where I can purchase them? I live in the middle of nowhere, so I will probably have to purchase off the net.
Also, I'm going to be making some miniature bears with upholstery velvet. I've always just sewed the joints on. Are there any jointing materials small enough for 1"-3" miniatures?
Thank you so much for any help you can give me!
