Ted Nunes has provided these detailed photos of the work he completed to crea
te his "talking Ukulele". It also features a "sliding mouth." Of the design, Ted wrote the following:"Here are updated shots of 'Huey' that show how I did the mouth and eye movements. I figured this same rig could be used with a photograph. In fact, I know it can, because I did it once -- I made a puppet of a co-worker who was moving away. At his going away party I broke it out and we all passed it around, doing impressions of him. He loved it, so I gave it to him. He later told me he lost it. Argh!"
Very clever Ted, and the nice part is that the Uke is still playable. Very nice , thanks for sharing.
