Hi Mike,

These are very helpful. I thank you for sharing. I was wondering what type of yellow hose ou use? I haveseen them in many professional puppets and was wanting to buy some. Could you share the type, size and where to get them? Thanks.

push rods

Hi Blink,
Here is a link to one of the types of push rod you can use they are used for model airplanes. For small applications I only use the inner tube and use a piece of small plastic coated steel cable, like the size that you would use for neckless making which you can get at your local hobby store.

Hope this helps,

Hey Mike,

Thanks for the link. I guess I don't spend as much time in the hobby stores as I should. Every time I talk with other builders most tips I get involve going to the hobby store. Thanks again.

Nice quality to your designs.
