Hey Mary, I try to stay away from critter tips for Eureka but this one is too good to pass up. Can I use it in the column? And to all critters, you heard that Eureka and all of Playboard is going to merge into the Journal, didn't you? Since I am always desperate for tips for the column, if you have one, send it to me at: puppetmaster-AT-puppetswithpizazz.com. Thanks! Nancy

A recent trick I picked up from Michael Schupback at the Puppet Kitchen
involves a belt sander.

Take the fur and twist the fabric into a rope.  Turn the belt sander on and,
holding the rope tightly in both hands, run the fabric across the
beltsander. Because the fabric is twisted, the sander hits it unevenly, so
you get interesting random wear patterns.

Depending on the fur content and the speed of the sander, you could also get
some friction melting, much like running the fun through high heat in a
drier, but more localized.

Yours,
Mary
