Sorry about the subject line.  Should have read "The ring is back in the
bell."

> Hello all,
> I tried hanging the triangle bell from different stuff and the one that

> Things that don't work: an S hook made from 3/16" round steel.
> Things that work, but not as well as the boot lace: picture hanging wire
> (the twisted wire type), single strand twisted copper electric wire with
> clear plastic insulation.
> Things that sounded the best: the old boot lace, parachute cord (not sure if
> it's as good as the lace), single strand of steel wire.
> I went with the parachute cord for strength.  Will pick up boot laces when
> I'm in town.
