Single Spine Body Complete Kit

Question

Q: How much weight can this unit handle? Thinking of using this as an armature for a temporary figure utilizing monster mud soaked fabric for a cloaked figure.

Asked by: Ron - 1/15/2017

Q: This indicates the prop is approximately 5'10". Does that assume a head in that measurement or is that strictly the PVC? (Some of your pictures show a foam head) It says finished but I would assume finished would make an allowance for a head so I wanted to clarify. Also, would this or the child version be strong enough to hold a lantern up in one hand? Thanks so much!

Accepted Answer

Hello, for a prop made with Monster Mud I would suggest using our KIT-3 configuration as it will handle more weight by design. If your figure does not need to have adjustable legs, I would consider removing the spider joints from the legs and making the legs out of straight lengths of PVC for the most stability.

Accepted Answer

Yes, you are correct. The height is approximate and does include a head in the equation. The actual measurement will vary slightly depending on the head that you use.

Yes, either kit is able to hold a lantern in any position you’d like.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Hello, this kit will give you everything needed to make a body approximately 5’10”. You can trim it as needed if you would like it slightly shorter.

Not sure what animation you are looking to do? just kicking legs or something more? Our Spider Joints can be made to move with the addition of a fender washer in between the 2 halves. I would also recommend one of our MNT-PVC2 mounts for attaching your motor to the PVC frame. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to discuss your project in detail. Thanks!
