This is a puppet animation of my wooden puppet. I used wire for her arms and legs which allowed the wood pieces to move better and gave her more flexibility when stringing her.

The Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History held a festival with several tables with information about the history inside the Museum as well as a lot of examples of some of the items during the time period. At the festival there were chuckwagons, cattle, tools being made, an astrology area to look at the moon, women making belts and other items out of yarn, and finally a celtic band which performed a wonderful puppet show. The puppets used are called Limber Jack Puppets. They are made out of wood and have one handle in the back to hold the puppet while hitting the piece of wood underneath the puppets feet to make the puppet move. Above is a video demonstrating the movement of the puppet.
