tungsten (filler) in Europe

[Alf]

Hi everybody,

I need filler for my bags.

Does anyone know, where I can buy tungsten (or other good metall filler) in Europe?

What do you use?

Thnx!

I don't wanna take away from Alf's post, but if anyone knows how to get tungsten, or, like, bismuth in Canada too... I think myself and Eskimo Joe were looking to pick some up.
(I thought it might be silly to make a new thread?)

I can get some 15 minutes from my house.

My house is hacky sack central. 15 minutes in three different directions I can get lead, steal, or tungsten/ facile/ rod lavers

where do you buy your tungsten, MarvlMan?

[mahhkohh]

alf, get the planetfootbag stuff, or order at http://www.make-a-teddy-bear.com/shop/ but remember that you contribute to the community if you get the planet footbag stuff.
also go to zookölle or something like that and get some aquarium rocks(glasierte!!!) and try to find a source for plastik beads.... then you can fill your bags, tungsten is hard to find in europe, at least i couldnt find some! steel is also a godd choice, maybe plated steel for less rust....

EDIT:fixed the link

[Alf]

thnx, for the tipp!!!
I bought some of the planetfootbag filler and its good quality!!

But www.makeabear.com/de isn't really working, and it's not a german site.
But I try to find the real site.

sorry, i might had the wrong link, but its a german site, that sells stuff to sew your own teddy bear... i will search it and edit the link if i find it. sorry
