Mathieu I have taken the basic mechanics of a ventriloquist dummy and modified the design for a glove puppet. I used a 8mm wooden dowel connected to the inside of the puppet head. I placed levers for the mouth and eyes which could be operated by my index finger on the wooden dowel. My thumb was used for one puppet hand, my middle finger was used for the other puppet hand. My ring finger and little finger held on to the bottom of the wooden dowel. The other way to do it would be to run string controls for the eye blinks down thru the puppet's body and operate them with the other hand. Les PS I could take a photo of the basic idea - if that would help. _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-lists.driftline.org Admin interface: http://lists.driftline.org/listinfo.cgi/puptcrit-driftline.org Archives: http://www.driftline.org
