Happy Holidays & Thank you Greg Claassen & Mike Brose !

First off, I just wanted to wish Happy Holidays to everyone! Also, I wanted to express my thanks to both Mike Brose (Puppets & Props) and Greg Claassen for the time and help for which they have also offered in helping to further along Abhijeet's desire into make a ventriloquist figure a reality. Which just goes to prove how much of a class act both Mike & Greg truly are!
As you know, in keeping with a previous blog posting on Abhijeet, he hails from India, and is incredibly interested in Ventriloquism, as well as learning to make his very own Ventriloquist figure. Unfortunately, Abhi does not have the same sort of means available to him in India with which to make a vent figure as we do here in the United States. Where both you and I are concerned, if we need to purchase a spring or new power tool (for example) to further along our own figure building projects, the hardware store is most likely just down the street. But in Abhijeet's case, he does not have these same sort of luxuries with which to purchase much needed supplies, nor the figure building resources we share here in the States.
As a result, armed with the creative knowledge provided by both Mike & Greg, Abhijeet is now on his way and I find this incredibly exciting. I cannot wait to see what he creates!

Keep building & keep venting!
