if you are using a mold you will need to stick the bail on afterwards, there only seems to be the expensive bails around by aanranku(?) at the moment.There are several glues around for this, I use e6000, check out warmglass.co.uk

You could suspend by looping your chain/thong/waxed cord through the teardrop, and then you wouldn't need to glue on a bail <-----from a woman who's yet to find a glue to beat the wrench test Grin

possibly drill a hole which is tricky and risky, wire wrap it?

Doh! Excuse me - having a thicky moment! It's coz I bought a teardrop recently (which I haven't used yet) which was 'open' and I had a mental picture of that when I read the word 'teardrop' Ignore me, I'll go away now!
