    I just finished building Mojo 2.0!

    Brian - I am just continually impressed by your growth as an artist. It's been great to follow this and other puppet communities and see people like yourself artistically flourish. I meant to post a new thread about a build question but, seeing as your character contains the element I was...

    SST 40th Anniversary Event

    OK - it may sound cheesy but, I just got my ticket in the mail today and, on top of feeling like a kid who just got the BEST gift [I'm 39] I can't help but feel like Charlie from Willie Wonka when he got his golden ticket. My seat location is in the loge and, at first, I was afraid I was going...

    Advice on Simple Series puppet mouth

    Thanks Pasha! I was hoping you'd chime in at some point. I'll try that lock stitch on some practice material and, as I've pointed out, I'm not adverse to gluing. By the way, I brought the new guy to work along with my others from your patterns and everyone was amazed that I actually made it...

    Advice on Simple Series puppet mouth

    Thanks AE - good idea to leave excess if I go the sew route but, I think you and Melanpool are right on about just gluing.

    Advice on Simple Series puppet mouth

    Thanks Melanpool! I checked my Rotondo puppet as well and realized the mouth was glued. This seems like the logical thing to do.

    Advice on Simple Series puppet mouth

    I'm guessing I could glue down another mouth insert but, I'm looking to improve my puppet building skills and wanted to get some advice. For most of the mellonhead pattern, I machine sewed the puppet. However, I followed instructions to whip stitch the mouth and the stitching was HIGHLY visible...

    New puppet vid

    Hey Lab Rat - Loving the video. Now, when you say "based on your FAO Whatnot" - is this a new build that just looks like your Whatnot or is it your actual Whatnot embellished with new pieces like the eyebrows? Either way - fantastic job. Your puppeteering is top notch as always.

    Kermit Swamp Years DVD $1 ebay + Merry Muppet Xmas DVD

    Hi all - I know this is kind of late with a day left on my auctions. It just dawned on me that I should have dropped by here to let you folks know of a couple US region DVDs I had on ebay. Kermit Swamp Years still has no bids with an opening minimum bid of just $1...

    Jarrod Boutcher Pig Puppet back on ebay

    I know your question was hypothetical but, as the 'guilty' owner I have to say ... like a work of art, it's comforting to know that the next owner will have much the same connection/investment. Unfortunately when you weigh something like hanging on to a puppet that I'm not currently using and...

    Jarrod Boutcher Pig Puppet back on ebay

    Wouldn't that be funny. I was looking at the amazing photos on your myspace this morning and thinking what an incredible journey Raymond had from your hands to my house on the other side of the globe. It's almost a sin that I'm selling him. It feels like I'm selling my puppy or something. Ugh...

    Jarrod Boutcher Pig Puppet back on ebay

    Sadly, financial circumstances and an impending move have made me decide to put this beautiful puppet back on ebay. Won back in December and kept in pristine condition. I hope he finds a good home. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220210254869&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:US:1123

    New Puppet On Ebay!

    It's when I see puppets like this that makes me wish I was independently wealthy. I would gladly put you and Jarrod in business for some time.

    The Muppets take the Jacob Burns Film Center in NY

    LOL It must be the polyeurethane on the new stairs in the house. I'm a little dizzy and overworked this week ;) Personally, I think I'm opting out of 'DC' because I saw it over the holidays on DVD.

    The Muppets take the Jacob Burns Film Center in NY

    ...and here's what the center had to say (pretty cool too...) Yes, Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, The Muppets Take Manhattan are all being projected in 35mm. Unfortunately, we may not be able to get the brand new print that Sony just struck of Labyrinth - and if we do get it, it will only be for...
