I began my quest for a simple pounding peg bench, so that my grandson could relive the enjoyment I recall from one of my favorite childhood toys. To my disappointment, all I could find was relative junk . . . made of pressed wood/resin and even using rubber o-rings for resistance that actually provided almost none. Hammers that fell apart. Pegs that would fall all the way through with merely a tap of the finger (perhaps in the spirit of non-violence, we wouldn't want the child to actually have to HAMMER the pegs??). Not to mention the current concerns over leaded paint in toys.
Fortunately, I located this Charlie's Workshop pounding peg toy. Expensive (about $80.00 w/ shipping), but seems to be a fair purchase. I received it by UPS Ground within a week of ordering. Old-world handcrafted quality. Non-toxic materials and sturdy enough to use as a wheel chock for a truck. The bench and pegs are almost twice the dimensions of the similar toy that used to be so commonly sold. Nice hardwood finish. Nicely resistance-fitted pegs that actually have to be hammered through the holes (which is the whole idea).
As I said, pricey but a quality toy that can be handed down through generations.
