Ichabod Crane universal head control for rod puppet

Here is my modification on a universal head control for a rod puppet. The control allows for up and down, side-to-side and diagonal twisting of the head or cocking the head. The control can be clicked into a holder which then transfers the side to side and up and down movement to a foot pedal. This was necessary to keep multiple characters alive in a scene. Click on drawing to enlarge then click on the multi arrow icon in that window to get the photo to enlarge a lot further where you can scroll around the photo to see details. The head is attached by nylon cord joint and has a flexible double-jointed neck to allow the head to thrust forward. The heads are carved from holly which polished looks somewhat porcelain.
