I just wanted to say..... I LOVE SEINFELD! Oh, and I'm a builder too. lol ;)

lol :crazy: Not that I always throw caution to the wind, but the back of my contact cement tub only cautions a person to use in a well ventilated area. I wonder maybe if the Weldwood stuff isn't as strong as Barge, and therefor maybe not quite as dangerous..... although, still VERY potent...

Hmmm, I never knew about the skin contact thing. But I just noticed that it says that on the can too. :o Wonder what kind of gloves would be acceptable without hindering the ability to work. Wouldn't think rubber gloves would be suffient huh? I do get a bit on my hands about 95% of the...

Nope no respirator, but we're talking a garage door here, not a regular wall door and the fan is behind me blowing toward the door. I never smell the stuff. I've got three perfectly healthy children, so it's never been an issue.

Yep, I use the Welwood in gel formula because it's easier to control and avoid drips/spills. I've never had issues with it drying up, but I also run through about a can every 2-3 weeks too, so it may not ever get the opportunity to settle long enough to dry. Not sure how long of a "shelf" life...

Sometimes, it isn't the number, it's the quality. ;)

I built one for a customer recently that required the same styled hair. I was able to find a wig easily at a local shop that rents costumes and such year round. Take a look in your yellow pages and give a few a call to see if they carry wigs for sale in addition to costume rentals.... most...

Hey, I just noticed that your located in Connecticut, How cool is that?! I'm from Connecticut too! I was born at St. Mary's hospital in Waterbury. I live in Florida now, but visit relatives once or twice a year. I've been here since I was nine, but I still miss the change of leaves in the fall...

Well, there IS a puppet in this house that has significant meaning but more to my daughter than myself.... My first attempt at puppet building was with felt and polyfill, which I made decent money with by selling them to friends, churches, and local craft shows. See my avatar, thats one of the...

I just had to pick myself up off the floor from my fit of giggles after visiting Jivepuppets website. The "friend on potty" picture is always a classic. :p Short cut to the photo I'm talking about Here Cool site by the way. :) -Michele PS: I know I muffined the thread, but you have...

Yay! I'm a puppet Nerd! I'm a puppet Nerd! *jumping up and down* :zany:

Hey Andrew, I googled your name, read a few articles and even got to see some photos of your work. It's awesome stuff, keep it up! -Michele

A few weeks ago I was preoccupied in conversation while hot gluing the tongue on a puppet and dropped the tongue on my leg. Since my puppet tongues are basically upside down hearts, my blister is a heart.... although I wasn't feeling much love when it burned me. :cry: Oh, and I once had a...

Me Too! I think thats why all the hair is singed off my knuckles..... yes, women have hair on their knuckles too. But, it does save me money on waxing! :excited: Now.... about those eye brows. :eek:

Wow! who dug this bone from it's grave?! I jump in to see if anything new is happening around here and thought I had entered a time warp or something. :p Hello everyone. -M

Hello! Hello! The store that is selling my puppets in New York is called Sweet Street located in Williston. The address info is in the gallery section of my website. I just visited and did a puppet workshop for young teens and dropped off some new puppets for display. I had a blast and the...

:mad: :( :cry: I forgot to take photos of the puppet I built before I left out of town for the weekend. I had access to the internet and saw the reminder for the deadline, but didn't have a digital to take photos and was busy in New York with the Shop that is selling my line of puppets. I'm...

Thank Goodness! :excited: I'm still not finished with the one I was going to enter..... darn customers. ;)

It is my understanding that a hank of hair is a bunch of hair strands usually held together with string or a rubber band. They are LOOSE strands of hair that are used to braid into human hair as extensions. Not sure of the standard amount offered in a hank but I beleive it is weighed in ounces...

Hmmm, how about a home made foam tube with a wire insert, sprial it and then put a handmade cone on one end for the "point"? You can apply color with floral spray paint. Thats what I'd experiment with anyway. :confused:
