Make the tube.........but make it long on the end. At the top cut long v-shaped pieces out of it and then glue them together ...........practice on paper first and you'll see what I mean. Which ever paper pattern makes it look more oval at the top............use it on your real tube and...

One thing is true.......when I made Pepe.......I burned my self like 8 times.........I never did learn. I'm using rubber gloves next time I hot glue alot. Dave :) ps you can pull those suckers off quickly!

Hey GA Stage!!!! Aren't you a supplier of the fleece???? Dave :) If so, give me an email concerning prices for both small quantities and a full bolt price!!! vader_darth_@hotmail.com

Man those puppets are superb. They look just like real muppets. Nice website too. Dave :)

If I get enough interest I would be happy to send it there. Dave :)

Hey guys......... I know alot of us are searching for Antron fleece and I figured, why don't we get several of us and pitch in to get a full roll and save a bundle of money. For cut orders it's like 13 bucks per yard............a whole roll is only 8 dollars per yard, but it costs like 400...

I would think so...........there is an email addy for orders!!!! Dave :)

I went to a fabric store hoping to find it today, but to no avail. I have been told you must mail order it and it must be true. My fabric stores almost always have it all...........but not this! Dave :)

Yes that is the price. I tried to go back and put dollar signs with the numbers but my edit ability had timed out. Dave :)

The aljo for nylon fibers is what you want. Antron=nylon. If the website doesn't make that clear, just call them and ask. Dave :) ps Look for the Acetate-Nylon type specifically. I found the info on the puppet builder website. This type works best for Antron fleece. Also, to spray...

Kermit has found a new permanent home. A Star Wars Prop fan on another board I frequent has decided he can't live without Kermie...........so I let him go with the gentleman. He has always wanted a Kermit puppet! The other two are still available: Pepe-350, Animal-450. Dave :)

I think you need to airbrush with water based paints...........because some solvent based paints will dissolve the foam!!!!

According to the puppet builder, Aljo has a Nylon specific cold dye that really pumps color into the Antron (nylon) based fleece material and that the colors are much more vivid that Rit which doesn't seem to take to Nylon and other man made fabrics. Dave :)

The proper dye is made by Aljo. http://www.aljodye.com/main.html their dyes are what Henson Co. uses according to the pro-puppet builder I spoke with.

Kroovie..........one of the best places to start is by purchasing: The Foam Book it is a wonderful resource for making your own muppet type puppets. You can buy one from Amazon.com Dave :) PS welcome aboard!!!!

Absolutely fantastic fraggles...........very nice quality muppets!!!!! Dave :cool:

That is a pretty cool Beaker............you did a fantastic first try.............I'll bet you nail it the second time! Dave :)

Cookie's only drawback is finding the doggone blue long shag fur..................I am guessing that the only way to get it is to buy white nylon fur and dye it with aljo blue dye. Dave :) The rest should be fairly easy.

Cool muppets man............my favorite is Bert!!!! You also have a very beautiful family. You did do a nice job on Animal. Dave :)

How I would love to be hired by Henson............to continue to original muppet puppets for future projects............that would be cool. I'm not saying it isn't being done, I'm just saying if they wanted to be greedy poo poo heads, they could legally ruin a fellow for making Animals and...
