    Where in the world is Antron Fleece?

    Yeah, I agree with Gordon that it's not a bad idea to start getting comfortable with other fabrics. I also agree D'Snowth that Polar Fleece isn't such a horrible fabric to work with. I do still prefer Antron, but it's limited availability has forced me to try other things. As for fur...I...

    Help! I've never made a puppet before...

    I have been studying this art for several years now and I couldn't agree more with going to Project Puppet for a start! They will certainly guide you in the right direction for what you're after. I also would recommend a couple of web sites where you can learn a lot of the fundamentals and...

    Puppet Displays/Storage

    It was SO easy to make! One trip to Home Depot, a hack saw and file and off you go! It would be pretty easy to modify it for wall mounting. Personally I needed the flexibility of a free standing rack. I can provide the dimensions of the various pieces that I cut for the rack shown if you'd like...

    Puppet Displays/Storage

    Yeah, I've used the large plastic bins as well. Though I prefer to mount the puppets on some sort of stand as the bins tend to smush the puppets a bit. Anyway here is the stand I mentioned earlier. I built this entirely out of 3/4" PVC pipe, joints, and caps for a total cost of about $20...

    Puppet Displays/Storage

    As I continue to build my puppets I've had to come up with a solution to this issue as well. I decided to go with good old PVC. The one I ended up building holds 11 puppets and takes up only a small amount of floor space. Haven't yet covered them, but really could easily throw a tarp or blanket...

    Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey documentary in development

    Thanks for posting this! I did find an article with a bit more from the director. Looking forward to the eventual DVD release. I'm sure it will get one but it will likely be a year or three. I know that my wait for The Boys was nearly interminable.

    I'd like to own a Fraggle

    I agree with beakerfan. But I want to see some photos of the puppet you made beakerfan! I especially like your note about materials. I love working with Antron and do when I can, but I've used a number of different materials including an old magenta robe that my daughter gave me. Here's 2...

    How Nono Wrecked our Puppet Theater

    Wow. I'm always amazed by the people that seem too embarrassed to parent properly. As I do so many times in life where children are concerned I turn to the gospel of Cosby. Here then is the routine I feel is most appropriate to your rather amazing story...

    The Wild Banana!

    While I DO love him and he would make an awesome sidekick for Lightning Rod I'm afraid the budget won't allow for such extravagances right now. Hope he finds a great home though!

    Looking for a Puppet/Plush Maker

    I see there have been a number of views but till now no replies to your request. I think it may be because what you're asking for would be a violation of copyright and that's something most reputable builders will avoid. Your best bet may be to try and create one yourself. Of course...
