Hi everyone,

I know a few people have been asking for it, so I've finally put The Tumbles P. Bear Project back online. It's a multi-part article I wrote a few years ago about how I built one of the puppets for my Bear Town web series. It explains the wedge method of foam puppet construction as well as the method I use for making removable arm rods.

You can see the finished puppet I was building in the tutorial online at http://www.frappr.com/puppeteers/photo/648485

The article is incomplete and I don't think I'll be finishing it. It's a few years old so I'd rather just put together a new (complete) tutorial using some newer, better techniques. It will give a brief explanation of the wedge method though.

If anyone has questions or needs any clarifications just let me know. I hope it's useful for those people who are interested!

Thank you

Buck, thank you for reposting your Bear Town tutorial.
Another great site with some great steps to build a puppet.
Between your site and Sean's I'm getting a really good education on ways to build a puppet, and the kinds of variation in design.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
