So, how to avoid a test build getting boring?
Simple: come up with some excuse to hang two staplers from one of the whiskers and make a video about it. ;o)
Of course I always use pretty thick paper (200 gsm) and I took extra care glueing the whiskers inside the snout using the small glueing tabs. But still I was pretty impressed! (the black stapler is almost completely out of metal and actually pretty heavy!*)
But luckily, even if you want to use thinner paper, it shouldn't be a problem either, save for someone sneaking into your house at night and hanging two staplers from your Cait Sith doll's whiskers...
(* I couldn't get it to breaking point though, adding more weight just made the whiskers slip out of the clamp... ;o)
that's just awesome lol it will be strong enough unless you do some really strange stuff...............
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah the test itself was just nonsense fun really... ;o)
ReplyDeleteThe strength isn't really an issue, because it doesn't really *need* to be strong, in the end the whiskers are purely decorative.
As long as the parts wouldn't be too small to handle, it would be okay (and for me, they were more than big enough to handle even without tweezers ;o)
This has a vaguely torturey vibe...
ReplyDeleteI assure you, no (real cats) have been hurt in making this video! ;o)
