Thank you for making puppet making so accessible. It's not something I'd even considered before stumbling across your channel and now I'm really excited to make my first snoof once I've managed to gather the materials. I imagine a lot of these techniques can also open up other areas of crafting too, so you're opening up this whole world to people who otherwise may have always just assumed they weren't good enough to even try. Thank you.
Just want to say thanks for providing all these tutorials. I used to think that making puppets was only for professionals. But after making a snoof I've been making puppets since.
I am a Korean. Your video is so interesting and interesting, thanks to your video, I made my own hand doll for the first time. Thank you! I'm rooting for you.
Hi Adam I purchased a jintai vacuum former exactly like yours But I need to know what kind of plastic and the thickness The plastic I used takes to long to melt then when it does it burns up
So here’s a challenge for you: make a rig inside the head that will allow the puppeteer to move the eyebrows up and down. Individual brow movements would be a bonus.
Thanks for this. Dustin (comment below) suggested goggles in case of needle break. I concur; you may want to add an addendum. Appreciate your work, I've learned a lot.
I have recently discovered your channel and am watching lots of your old videos. Even though I don't particularly want to make a puppet, you're just so enthusiastic that I love to watch you work. This video and the one about Cookie Monster eyes have led me to wonder something, though. Do you know what a Pin Vise is? It's basically a very small drill made to hold really tiny bits (like stick-pin thin). Model makers use them to drill holes for pins to support joints. A pin vice wouldn't be as fast, but it would probably be safer than trying to use a sewing needle in a power drill.
Hello l was really sad with your illness ... I pray you are healthy and happy ... ❤...😊... your videos are very ispiring.... 😊....I want to be a puppetrician just like you .... ❤....I have just finished my studies in fashion and I need to make my practice ...😮... All alone 😢.... Looking you I think I can give it a try ...🎉...I love dolls and kids and I want help kids ....❤...I grew up with muppet show too...❤...😊... With Kelly...❤❤❤
Hey Adam! Recently I have been thinking if you could do a Godzilla Puppet! I’m sure I would be fun, just something you might consider, because I m have been making one and it’s going bad. Hope you can make it!
I would recommend wrapping that needle in gaff tape or a tape that's similarly thick and grippy, and then properly chucking it into the drill to reduce that wobble (and avoid slipping and shoving a spinning needle into your hand or fingers!)
@@PuppetNerd to clarify- the grip of the tape on the pin isn't strong enough, and so the eye pushes the pin through to the back of the chuck? Would a piece of tape wrapped over the head before wrapping the shaft (and that tape) help keep the pin in place?
@@JustinMBrauer the pin is a thin smooth shaft being pushed into a solid surface quickly. This creates a lot of heat in a short time, in a small area. The residue of the tape wears away from the heat. Thick about his tape can get sticky and slimy if left in the sun or a hot room. It doesn’t hold up. Also, the pin is so narrow, there isn’t enough surface-areas or the tape to get a strong enough hold anyway. Especially on such a smooth surface. The pin needs to be pinched somehow. A smaller chuck would work too.
@@PuppetNerd Not in my experience, but I also went slower than you seem to so that might be a factor. Micro drill chuck adapters are reasonably cheap nowadays, at least, so that's an option if you ever decide you want simpler fine control and less scary needlewhirling.
@@probablynotsoup you won’t be able to drill slowly going into wood if you are using a needle since there is no cutting edge. It depends on the heat and speed.
@@PuppetNerd Sorry but that isn't quite right; you can use a needle to drill into (at least) soft woods, and you need to go slowly to avoid excess heat so you don't scorch/burn. I mostly work with pine, and have never had an issue using either rubber-wrapped pins or sewing machine needles for boring tiny holes with a power drill. Obviously YMMV.
@@probablynotsoup You wouldn’t use soft wood on these elements of a puppet. Especially the eyes. Yeah I’m not talking about soft woods. I am literally talking about the materials in the video.

Hey, how did you get on?
This popped up in my recommendations. I’m not disappointed
The king of the puppet community 👑
a blessing.

once you make more puppets and more you slowly start to get better and better and that's the fun part about making puppets
What a great idea. Cheers. Oh yeah, if anyone is wondering where to get a spring, just take apart a click pen.
I am a Korean. Your video is so interesting and interesting, thanks to your video, I made my own hand doll for the first time. Thank you! I'm rooting for you.
I don’t even make puppets, your videos just make me happy
لمسة بسيطة ولكن تجعل الدمية لطيفة وأكثر احترافية
شكرًا على فيديوهاتك وشرحك الممتع
This will come in handy! Pretty recently I made a gray snoof named dusty, and I kind of want to use some kind of eyebrow mechanism.
This is so cool, I’m going to add this eyebrows to my dragon puppet
Hi Adam I purchased a jintai vacuum former exactly like yours
But I need to know what kind of plastic and the thickness
The plastic I used takes to long to melt then when it does it burns up
i learned a lot from your tutorials .thank you
Have you ever tried painting the wire to match the body color (this probably would only/best work with fur)
Excelente idea, gracias por compartir sus experiencias
This is really your cool, thanks Adam
So here’s a challenge for you: make a rig inside the head that will allow the puppeteer to move the eyebrows up and down. Individual brow movements would be a bonus.
I love the new wall paint!
Man you grew in channel growth so much since 2019, I remember going to the maker fare and meeting you
how do you get that kind of look/texture of fur?
Thanks for this. Dustin (comment below) suggested goggles in case of needle break. I concur; you may want to add an addendum. Appreciate your work, I've learned a lot.
Yeah. Common sense is a requirement for all of my videos. 😂
Do you have your own shop or you sell puppets
Hey Adam. If you want to get a better fit with the pin in the drill, you can use something called a pin vise. Just Google "pin vise".
Can you do more techniques on puppets because I love watching you make puppets and want to make one myself
I was just thinking about this the other day! what a coincidence.
Cool!
Wade Duck from US Acres also had floating eyebrows
Is camp puppet coming this year because i want to join.
It sure is! Coming soon!!!
You are very talented
What is the best form to get
Very cool!
Thank you! Awesome.
I love your videos!
Me Too
Hay Adam do you know how too clean up seems on a puppet?
Sure do! Video coming soon!

Torsion springs are good for making a mouth mech.

Can u make a tutorial on articulated eyebrows? , I have made blinking eyes for my puppet and I'm looking for a way to raise or furrow its eyebrows .
Are you referring to floating eyebrows or regular ones?
He actually has. Try searching how to make blinking eyes for a puppet
She did you
paint your background pink
Witch craft?
Nice
could you do a tutorial on how to build a pig puppet (the bacon one on your website.)
That would be cool!
Can you do a tornado puppet tutorial video? You know how they made the tornado in Elmo's World: Weather.
Hey Adam! Recently I have been thinking if you could do a Godzilla Puppet! I’m sure I would be fun, just something you might consider, because I m have been making one and it’s going bad. Hope you can make it!
I like puppetssss
Great!
Gracias por compartir.
Amazing i love it!
Have you ever had a needle break? I think I'd have goggles on. Great video!
Common sense is required for all my videos. 😂. Also, it’s a pin. They don’t break. They bend. But needles do break.
I would recommend wrapping that needle in gaff tape or a tape that's similarly thick and grippy, and then properly chucking it into the drill to reduce that wobble (and avoid slipping and shoving a spinning needle into your hand or fingers!)
I tried. It slips out of the tape. It’s not strong enough.

You should teach us how to make glasses for your puppet
Please don’t forget Joey Mazzarino on Puppet Tears
¿What if you make moving eyes like sam the eagle?
I feel like through a bit of trial and error. You could make a mechanism with these kind of eyebrows and get them to move up and down.
I think you should design and sell your own drill bits for your trade.
Is your puppet cookie monster
Puppet colesion
Make jimmy from the sweet Jenny’s comercial
I already made him. That’s how he exists.
@@PuppetNerd I know but you haven’t made a tutorial on how to make him
This is too ironic! I've had a puppet idea to do this very thing with!
hello
I made 6 puppets going on 7 soon. I’m on facebook
That blue puppet looks like Cookie Monster Before you put Eye Browns
Build idea: make a adam kreutinger puppet
Coming soon!
Could you do a tutorial on how to build a dragon from shrek and gingerbread man?
Just wrap a small piece of rubber around the needle so the drill chuck bits hold it in place...
There is too much heat generated for that. Wont work.
@@PuppetNerd Not in my experience, but I also went slower than you seem to so that might be a factor. Micro drill chuck adapters are reasonably cheap nowadays, at least, so that's an option if you ever decide you want simpler fine control and less scary needlewhirling.
