The secret project revealed! I was contacted by the wonderful folks at SciShow Kids to make new versions of Bill, Webb and Juniper! Look for them on their YouTube channel soon! #puppets#puppetbuilding
#throwbackthursday again! In 2021 I did a series of live streams demonstrating that a quality pro #puppet can be made with accessible materials like simple polar fleece. The result! The VoD is up on our #peertube, link in bio #puppets#puppetbuilding
The Vent Haven Museum in Fort Mitchell, Ky., houses the world's largest collection of ventriloquism dummies. In this Atlas Obscura podcast, Dylan Thuras takes you to meet the 500 residents of the museum, including a replica of Charlie McCarthy, who was responsible for Mae West being banned from NBC radio for 12 years. Here's a link to the podcast, and to an article that describes what you'll find in the museum.
New monstor just dropped! This is my second sack #puppet, done for an O:P community member. Turns out I quite enjoy making sack #puppets! #puppetbuilding

Another #throwbackthursday! The first type of puppet I sold was my tribute to Fraggles, which I call Greeblees. In 2020 I did a new “deluxe” version of them, and this was the first. Today’s Greeblees are still based on this first build! #puppets#puppetbuilding
Another #puppet off to their forever home! I think of this one as “that guy at the Linux conference who wouldn’t stop talking to us at the bar.” #puppets#puppetbuilding#smallbusiness
For fans of Robin Ince and Brian Cox, today I remembered a beautiful little series that Cosmic Shambles made 8 years ago, about what happened when puppet Brian lost his Wonder. It's six little 7 min films, full of in-jokes. Well worth your time.
