Default PVC Toys for Ollie

I made these yesterday for Ollie. I based them off of the kitchen sink toys: Kitchen Sink, Forever Toys. It took me about 6 hours to make 4 toys, and for as much as I paid for the supplies I could have only gotten 1.5 from the website. And that cost was including PVC pipe cutters that I should have bought a long time ago, and a new pair of pliers that I've been needing. Best of all- I had a blast!

The things on the end all spin:


More of a perch:




My favorite:


All I need to get are some SS rings to put on each of the spinner "legs" so they make noise when they spin around.
