Due to the nature of this project, these objects are are solid, and not hollowed like you normally see with our models. My suggestion is to just print with lo...

Can triangles be evil? This one is!
Bill Cipher is the main villain from the Disney show "Gravity Falls" and he's basically a chaotic evil and all powerful eldritch menace in the form of a floating triangle/pyramid. He can do anything, control people's reality, turn them into things, make anything he...

A couple things to note:

Hey all! Linked below are the measurements we used for the PVC frame on our pumpkin scarecrow. Our recommendation is to use these as a starting point and adjust based on your needs.
Some Tips:
Knee Joints are Optional (if you want to bend legs).
Use a mix of 45° and 90° Connectors (for Variet...

Happy September!! 🎉 We're working on THREE new Halloween projects for this next video, all of which you can easily build at home in a day or two. 👻🎃💀
Here are some work in progress updates!
A few months ago we got an incredible email from the Make-a-Wish Foundation after they had received a very unique wish...a custom spooky animatronic of "Bon" the Bunny from "The Walten Files".
The Walten Files is an ...
2024-08-07 22:34:51 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all! It's been an absolutely insane chaotic few weeks. We finished filming an entire project video (more on that below) and moved our entire house all in the span of about a week. Well sort of.
For about a year now we've been casually looking at getting a new house that would solve a few issues:
A. We work from ho...

Hey all - here is the The Puppet mask 3d printing STL, sculpted by Beardless Props!
It should fit in a single print on a 256mm x 256mm bed. If you print in the single piece, you'll need to use supports on the underside! I used a variable layer height and all the w...

We just got back from an incredible weekend at Open Sauce 2024, a Maker/Creator conference in San Francisco dedicated to Engineering, Science, and Art. It was incredible! We got to visit Adam Savage's workshop as well as Mark Rober's Crunchlabs, and we spent a ton of time with some o...

As you can probably guess, the character (or boxing glove? or whatever lol) will get attached to the end and it springs out super fast when it's turned on!
One of the tricky parts is that you can see the bottom of the first piece has to slide u...

We're getting started on our next project, which is going to be using this pneumatic "scissor" to do a lunging jumpscare kind of thing. It's going to be awesome!!
(We've got a character in mind but we'll talk more about that in a later post.)
Basically the way this works is the scissor gets pulled back and then extends forward via an...

The default size is BIG since it was modeled for our animatronic. It can be resized, just keep in mind the mounting hardware will need to get a bit smaller too.

Hey all! As seen in our CatNap animatronic video, I designed a custom wiper motor mount for 1" pvc pipe and here is the file! It gives you a way to sturdily attach your wiper motor parallel to your PVC so you can build your own animatronics!

Hey all! We're a good ways through our next project video which, by a significant margin, is our most highly requested creature to date. He's called 'CatNap' and we've had THOUSANDS of requests to build him in just the last couple of weeks alone.

As requested by many, here are two new adapters for use with 3/4" and 1/2" PVC pipes!
You can use these with any of our 1" PVC parts to convert them to smaller sizes. The thinner pipes will definitely be cheaper, but just keep in mind they'll also be a lot more flexible and less rigid!
Occasionally, depending on brand, there are tiny...

To our surprise, it worked just fine right off the bat!!! (We're not used to that... ðŸ˜...
