| Westpuppet Marionette Controller I have tried all the different marionette controllers and have combined my two favorite. A combination of the English control for arm movement and the continental controller with the rocker leg bar. The only controller that does everything with just one hand! |
| Westpuppet Marionette Portable Stage My stage is quick and light. After many hundreds of performances I have developed a quick and easy set up that works well for me. I have a very small trailer so it had to pack up small. I live in Florida so it had to be weather proof. I had to minimize the trips to haul it around, so it had to be light. Details coming soon... |
| Westpuppet Marionette Transport I have discovered the perfect way to transport marionettes with this controller. Take a shower curtian and cut it in half long wise. Use one half of the curtain for each puppet. Simply lay the puppet down in the middle, then fold each side one at a time over the puppet. Now fold the long tube accordian style over once at the head and then back. I will have to post pictures sometime to make it clearer. Puppets pack and unpack in 2 seconds flat and to date I have never had one tangle! |

| Westpuppet Marionette Construction I tried like 20 different puppet joints I learned from different books but did not like any of them. Either they were not weather proof, child proof, too difficult to build, did not like the movement, too unpredictable or just too darn expensive to make. So I make my own joint I call "The 60 Second Joint". Because that is how long it takes to make. Perfect movement, weatherpoof, childproof, cheap and I have not had one fail yet. Sure, it is not the move beautiful joint but I have seen many more that are uglier. coming soon... |
