Simple Animatronics (robotic hand)

Step 8 Controlling the beast

To get things in motion we need to make a bracket of some kind. A plastic clothes hanger is about to be hacked.
Make a square by taping and gluing the pieces together.
Secure it to the end of the tube by using even more glue and tape.
Tie loops for all fingers. The thumb is a bit tricky to control at first but with time you'll get the hang of it.

That's basically it! The next step is really not necessary but more depending on the usage.

if you put a tube on the wrist make it just like a finger mart you can move the wrist

not bad but get a bigger tube and use it as the wrist so the person does't see the strings. and just let the strings hang there.
