Re: [h-cost] where to buy lucet?
Lynn Shulak, who is a hench in the FOF garden at Bristol Ren Faire makes them. I bought mine from the wood shop that use to be next to the garden. Lynn also taught a class in it one year. You can usually see her walking around the garden with the lucet in her hand. In a message dated 6/17/2013 7:21:04 P.M.

Thanks :) Google is your friend on this one. Really. Here's a few of the places I've seen them. Which ones you pick will depend upon how big a lucet you want, whether and how much you care about size, shape, and materials, and price. Good luck! (P.S. You'll get most hits if you type lucet into Google, but lucette may work also.)

Re: [h-cost] where to buy lucet?
On the ones I have, both been gives and bought, a good final polish with fine grade steel wool makes them smooth as glass. You want your loops to pull along smoothly. I don't recommend the cheap ones cut with a hack saw from thin plywood however. You may be putting a significant amount of tension on the prongs.
