Helpful Hints:
- When you buy your
parts, you will save money if you
go to
a mega-hardware store like Menards, Home Depot, etc.
- Whenever cutting
anything, ALWAYS use eye protection. ALWAYS.
Using a hacksaw,
or other appropriate tool,
cut the 1/2 plastic
conduit into the following lengths:
(2)- 2.5"
[hips]
(2)- 3"
[hindfoot]
(3)- 4"
[neck and forefoot]
(2)- 5"
[shoulders]
(4)- 6"
[upper and lower arms]
(2)- 6.75"
[toe and heel]
(1)- 11"
[torso]
(2)- 15"
[legs]
Attach pieces as in
the picture below.
Once this is complete, cut a section of foam 8"x24" and wrap it around the "Spine". You can secure it with the Duct Tape.
Next, cut another section of foam 12"x24". In the center, cut a hole through which you will place the "Neck".
Make a Duct Tape "Belt to shape the waist area.
