    Antron Fleece Dye Methods?

    Oh Duh! :o I've done it by memory for so long that I didn't even realize that there were manual instructions on the back. (I've always used the washing machine). So antron fleece doesn't need to be treated different than any other fabric? It was expensive with the shipping & all, I want to...

    Antron Fleece Dye Methods?

    Can someone please give me a simple yet quality method for dying Antron fleece? I really prefer RiT dye since it's easy to get in my area and I am familiar with it's color blending recipes. I've heard that dying by method of tub/bath instead of washing machine is best. Can someone list the...

    Puppety Opinion Please

    Oh no Buck... I wasn't taking anything personally. I actually welcome and often ask for criticism, especially when it comes to my work because it helps me put more effort into building better puppets. :excited: Just so long as no one tells me that my bird looks like feathered poo-poo or...

    Puppety Opinion Please

    Thank you for the well thought out reply Buck-Beaver. I totally agree and would never try to hide typical information that could be found on the internet or other sources that I have learned from. What I get protective about is something that I have come up with and is all of my own work and...

    Armslength Videos OR Pattern

    Well, I purchased the video online with a credit card. I wanted the kit too, but I'll see what kind of service I get with the video purchase first before I go handing the "unknown" almost $200 bucks! :concern: I did get an e-mail in regards to my purchase...... but it was automated, so I...

    Puppety Opinion Please

    Hello fellow puppet makers! :excited: I was wondering if I could get your oppinion on something. As some of you may know, I sell a few of the puppets I build on ebay. I get a lot of people asking me about "how" I did a certain something for the construction of my puppets. I don't want to be...

    How did you send your payment? I called to ask questions & pay via credit card before I even started this thread, but no one ever answers the phone and I've left two messages in the last three days. :confused: I'd feel really uncomfortable sending a check or Money Order to the address provided...

    Armslength Videos OR Pattern

    Thanks for the info guys. Officermom, do you mean that when I place my order for a video, I can pick the example I want shown?? I like the kit idea though, so I'll probably buy the whole thing if I decide to fork out the cash for the pattern because it's much easier to have everything at...

    Armslength Videos OR Pattern

    Hey guys, I've been thinking about adding either the Video or the Puppet kit from Armslength to my puppet stuff collection to use as resources. Can anyone here give me any information on what they know about either item? For example: Grey Seal (although VERY good) only showed one building...
