[0024] The instant invention provides an inexpensive easily installed method and system for secure animation and movement of the extremities of a rod-arm puppet in two rotational planes. In accordance with the invention, rotational movement is provided between the control rod and the extremity in two planes giving the extremity three degrees of motion or freedom. Thus, unlike prior art systems (even those of complicated design), the system of the instant invention allows the appearance of smooth continuous movement of the puppet extremity, independently, in three-dimensions without jerkiness or “floppy hands” (feet) or the arcing movement of prior art devices. In addition, the mechanical fastener allows easy detachment of the rod from the extremity for transportation and / or storage, yet provides secure rotational engagement of the rod and the extremity during performance.
[0025] A first rotational plane is provided by the rotation of the mechanical fastener closure element about the...
