    I have myself super psyhced about doing the electronic latex lekku. When would be a good time to get together to work on this with you and what supplies do I need to purchase before hand?

    I think he wants to do them in silicon and they're just wire operated, no electronics... but he can correct me if I'm wrong. ;)

    Hey all.

    If I remember correctly, I think I spoke of both options.
    The wire controlled would would use four bike cables attatched north,south,east,west running through flat circles(think vertebrae) tappering the lenth the the lekku. the cables would be attatched to the skull cap and more by body motion/ or run down your sleeve and be marrionetted like a puppet.

    The electronic version would use to servos(one for north/south one for east/west.) These servos would be attatched to said cables. A button contol box(running again down your sleeve.) Or could have pre programed motion written to a chip.

    Anyway, I can do ever. I can't write the chip but know how to have it done.

    I hope this little tutorial helps. And I'm more than happy to do it for you; time permitting.

    If you have more questions you can give me a call.

    Swordsaint out.

    PS. silicone would be the best material, both for look and feel.

    You know, if I can find a couple of more hours in the day, I may sculpt both male and female lekku versions.

    You know, I should really read my posts before I post them.
