    I've got some extra wood and want to make some coat hangers

    I have a wooden coat hanger that I can use to make my templates from, but i'm not sure where to get the metal hook to go in the top. Do you guys know of any sources for these? I'm also looking for the best place to buy a few dowel rods to use on them as well.

    Thanks for any input you can give!

    I think that's a cool idea. Maybe you can get some chrome plated wire from somewhere like Grainger. If all else fails, you can by wooden hangers and strip the hokes from them. I found hangers similar to the ones you show for less that $1.35/ea. Individual ready made hooks would probably cost you that.
