mikedatiger Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Looking for help in trying to find foam floats for use in making popping corks. Also, what is a recommended site to purchase wire, and beads? Thanks! Anybody? I've been searching on the net for 3 straight days and can't find anything. These floats are oval shaped and hollow with a plastic insert - i.e. normal slip float. Would be extremely thankful for any info on who makes them for wholesale purchasing.

JSC Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 For Years Comal Was the Styro Float People Did not check out see if they are still in business JSC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedatiger Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 For Years Comal Was the Styro Float People Did not check out see if they are still in business JSC They are still very much in business, but they sell their line under their label. Looking for someone here in the US preferably, that makes em for bulk wholesale purposes. I know they have to be out there, but not very easy to find.

Unless they have changed their policies they would sell in bulk several years back. JSC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
