Ouch!

Reader confession: I have a wee confession to make to you, Clinton. It's not a big worry, but still a nuisance. During a photo shoot with the 4 of us (Dexter, Clyde, Shirley & I), I had Dexter sitting on a Puppet stand when a gust of wind came up and blew him off! I was surprised how very little damage was done to him. All we could see is a small coating on the outer layer of wood had come off. The controls seem to work okay, thankfully. I suppose it would've been a 2 to 3 ft. drop. Still ,I have them insured if anything really bad goes wrong.

Host confession: I have to tell you, I also had a vent figure fall off a stand once while preparing a photo shoot. My heart missed a beat or two! Now I carry a C-clamp for such occasions so I can clamp the figure's bottom to the stand if I have to go hand's free. Otherwise, I don't turn my back on them lest the onery little guys try to take off on their own!
