Soldering the feet.....

Seven armature puppets required fourteen individual feet, and each one of the feet needed to be soldered. This took a few days to complete all the feet. I can confidently say soldering is not something I want to do again, as I burnt my finger on more than one occasion. After many failed attempts and burning a hole through my craft table at home, I managed to work out a way that I wouldn’t burn down the workshop!


Each foot required a connector block cut in half to create an ‘ankle’ piece. This was then soldered to firmly bond it to the brass plate or the foot piece.
