I use to work in an arcade that served food and when we figured this out we were all in the kitchen one night before closing making personalized key chains. That was twenty years ago now. Long before anyone even thought of KZitem. I can't remember what made me think of trying it. Probably one of the dumb guys in the kitchen left a container on top of the oven and it melted and we refined the idea.

if you cannot see the #6, try flicking plastic with your finger nail have another non #6 plastic to compare sound. The real #6 will have a tinny higher pitch sound when tapped, quite different from the non shrinky type plastic.
