In those days it was always a chain; presumably a rope would have been subject to mold, mice, etc.

Hmm - I figured, but wasn't sure. Chains are easier to make in either case (really - beats simulating a knot, making the cord flexible, etc...) Chain it is, then. /P

LW, must you be so practical? Besides, this guy probably only excretes sawdust, if anything. ;^)

Dont forget a "potty" for the baby....and while yer at it..a sand box for the p4 cat {:O) -LW

Excellent Idea! (the baby potty trainer, not the litterbox, that is.) It'll add some time to the ETA, but well worth the effort, IMHO. /P

I'll be damned! Hehe - I'll see if I can re-arrange a few things and make it a bit more true to the original. /P
