Our next puppet i want to be a pepe/rizzo like puppet. I read on this forum that he's controlled by a trigger mechanism. So after many sketches and scribbles i came up with a mechanism that will hopefully work. I was just wondering if anyone had a pattern, or drawing of a mechanical trigger mechanism for a puppet?


Tenks,
Cody
or Francois

edit: Just realized I said mechanism and mechanical 4 times :smile:

Nick Barone has some diagrams on his site that might help; scroll down to the links at the bottom of the page. These aren't exactly what you're looking for but they might be useful.

The easiest way to make a Pepe-like puppet is to go to your local Wal-Mart or any decent fishing supply store and buy a fish hook remover for about $5. That will work perfectly as a control for the mouth.
