I'd been looking to obtain a few more Slinkys for some Slinky Beverage
tests, and was having difficulty finding them locally.
I checked etoys.com and amazon.com, and the both have Slinkys.
Etoys has the standard size (2.75"), and Amazon has both the standard
size and the "Slinky Junior" size (1.62"). The Juniors come 4 to a
package for $5.99, and the standard size is $2.99 for one.
For those who want something different than the old cadmium-plated
coils, try the Brass Slinky for $14.99 each, or the 14 Carat Gold-Plated
Slinky for $99.99.
I'm planning to try converting my 330-foot NE/SW 2-wire Beverage
to Slinky's to see how they work.
