You did the tail wrong. You are supposed to put the cap in the tail, and the translucent plastic piece in the Boglin itself.
0:11 was that the bite of 87!?
Loved this
Es hermoso ❤, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos ❤
Damn dude this was such a great fucking idea thank you
Love it, now want to see it assembled. Ty
CAD cannot kill the Modeling Star
✨💜✨
☺️
Very cool. Are you thinning your Contact Cement to get it in the sqeeze bottle?
Thanks! I didn't thin in here. If it sits too long (in the bottle or an opened can) it'll thicken up, but you can thin it again by mixing in acetone.
There should be an international day for people who make educational videos online. I mean there is world teachers' day but I feel like these two should be in a whole different category. Thank you, mate!
for real, this explaination was amazing
YOURE SO AWESOME!!!! YOU ARE AWESOME NEVER FORGET THAT!!! EVERYONE LOVES YOU AND WE WILL CHERISH THIS VIDEO
Thank you! We love the enthusiasm!
you're so awesome
Thanks! :D
3:02 the thing you are holding in your hand that you are using to move the parts of the puppet--what is that made out of? Did you make it yourself?
That's just a short length of galvanized wire that we straightened and then bent the end 90 degrees. It's really great for rotating a piece, instead of just moving it up/down or left/right.
@@AlexAndOlmsted Thanks! I don't have galvanized wire on me, but I do have some floral wire--have you had success using floral wire for control rods? I saw in a different video you use them for coiled joints which I might try out, too.
@@MochaHEllamcKaine I wouldn't try floral wire for control rods unless the puppet were very small and lightweight. You might have luck if you have some thicker gauge floral wire and twist several strands together, but I'd really recommend just getting a roll of galvanized wire from the hardware store. It's inexpensive and will last you years, likely.
@@AlexAndOlmsted makes sense, thanks!
@@MochaHEllamcKaine Sure thing! Happy building!
Brilliant…!
Thanks!
I absolutely loved this show at the 2023 puppet festival
Thank you! We had SUCH a great time at the festival. Can't wait till the next one.
Love that construction!
Thanks! It's one of the joys of puppet theater!
I just got my 10 year old son his first boglin but he didn’t love it anywhere near as much as his 8 year old sister lol. I’m gonna have to get her more boglins!
I just found out about Boglins maybe a week ago and I just got one today for my 27th birthday. Having so much fun with it already. My 8 month old loves when I talk to him with it.
FABulous reviews, congrats you two!! 👏👏👏
You guys always create such wonderful material. I hope you'll both be back at the next puppetry festival
Thank you 🙏
I do love watching you two brainstorm!
Watched this late last night and then almost put popcorn in the coffee grinder this morning 😂
I don't think I have instafollowed a site this quickly in my previous 15(?) years of RUclips use! Love your site already! Can't wait to watch more! :)
awesome place - never been there! Y'all the best! Glad you got some Chitown love.
15 seconds of this video cleared up a concept I have been struggling with, and I am inspired to hit the workbench first thing after work! Thank you.
18:30 He's doing all of this for puppetry?! Amazing! I'm using it to set up the steering on my go-kart.
Excellent, thanks!
Great video. Left my wishing for more followup video on linkages in this style.
Great tip, thanks for posting the video.
👏👏👏👏
Lovely theater. Lovely editing.
美しい作品
Really beautiful art. Gives me inspiration to try out something similar with game dev
You guys that was sooo cool! Thank you for the walk thru and congrats on the sold out shows!
YOU must live in a bad neighborhood
THIS WAS PERFECTION!!!!!!
Vielen Dank für diese tollen Videos! Letzte Woche entdeckte ich euren "Morning Call" und war total begeistert davon, da ich gerade ein Papiertheater entwerfe und bastel. Heute entdeckte ich euer "Erklär-Video" dazu und bin noch viel begeisterter von euch! Ihr habt einen so faszinierenden Film entworfen und dann auch noch einen Blick in eure Werkstatt gewährt! 1000 Dank dafür!!!! Stephan aus Berlin, von den Anonymen Ukulelikern!
Best linkage mechanism explained thank you very much sir.
excellent demo and instruction
Nice tutorial, very effective technique. Thank you m
I cant wait to get my boglin!! He'll be here on Saturday i got the clown one!!
Thank you for this video. Well paced instruction. I initially got defeatest when the Photoshop and Illustrator tools were brought in (immediate thought: "That is too technical!!! Why can't I just draw/design in Cricut itself??"), but your approachable, encouraging-teacher-tone helped me get past that worry to continue on with the lesson. So glad I finished your video!!--And, kudos to you for intuiting that a meditative-exacto-knife-cutter (like me) would be watching. You're generous sharing of craft is laudable.
Whoa that’s amazing! Would it be possible to do a tutorial on animal masks such as these? These are some of the coolest I’ve ever seen 🐌💕
This is so cool!! Love the artwork and passion that went into this
This is so cool!! Love the artwork and love that went into this
How TF did you remove the piece holding it in the box?!?!?!
I'm not exactly sure which piece you're talking about, but watch 11:30 and 14:40 again. That might help.
Dope. So was this for demonstration only, or are you planning on using this as a real puppet? Wondering how you would put fabric on something like this, or color it.
Thanks! This was just for demoing the patterning process. If I were to cover it in fabric I'd probably use a draping technique and work in sections. If I were going to paint it I'd use acrylics and spray the surface of the foam with a little water to help the colors flow. Also, if I knew I was going to paint the foam from the start I would mark the insides of the pattern pieces so the marks wouldn't show.
@@AlexAndOlmsted That makes sense and is very helpful, just like the video in general! Thank you!
Really nice video. Thank you.
Thanks! Hope it was helpful!
I started out designing a really cool folding cup holder for my van using this process. I then machined out the parts on my Bridgeport mill, it was amazing to see how much just .020 difference in pivot points would would make the difference between work perfect or jamb! Again great video!
That's awesome! Do you have any video of the cup holder in action? Yeah, those tiny little changes in pivot points change so much! Especially the closer to pivoting points get to each other. It's also amazing how much changes when you switch from a paper or wood prototype to metal, and all of a sudden the tolerances are much tighter!
what a fascinating place
Isn't it? It's a total gem.
