I know a lot of chinnie parents buy the supplies to make their own chin toys. I know some use chain but it seems wire is becoming the hardware of choice, so for those who make your own toys...

What gauge wire do you prefer to use and why? Easier to cut?
 
Its about how easy it is to chew through. I use 16 for cages. So use 16 or thicker for toys (lower the number, higher the guage. 10 is thicker than 16 for example)
Too thin and it'll Bend and twist too easy. Potentially like string and tying little feet up.
