Imagine going to an event with a bag of assorted balloons in their original bag and a single action hand pump. Some twisters remember those days, some remember and shiver. Many of us would feel naked walking into an event without our floor pumps, snip its, rainbow of sharpie markers and our aprons or bags loaded down with thousands of balloons is dozens of shape and color combinations.
Now if you have ever been to a gathering of twisters you have seen rigs as varied and eclectic as the people that use them. Some have carts made from cat litter buckets, shopping carts, or even a set of rolling craft drawers. While others have bags/aprons and other tools that are manufactured specifically for twisters. Where do all these tools come from?
If you need a specific utensils for cooking, it is a pretty good bet that you can find it at Bed Bath and Beyond. However, for twisters , no such store exists. There are several great companies that sell most of what a twister needs, but not everything. Under the utensils you cannot buy everything a twister needs, you actually cannot buy anything. You can hopefully learn where to buy anything that you need. If an item is for sale through multiple distributors, they are listed in no particular order.
