Bucket buddy mini monster prop

[@skulkn2670]

A wise old lady once told me "keep it simple, Sweetie". And the bucket buddy is a great, simple but effective prop! Thanks!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

simple is always best!

[@spykkielee7627]

I've heard it called the k.i.s.s. rule. "Keep It Simple, Stupid" abbreviates to k.i.s.s. but i like your sweetie version better. :)

[@susanowen1709]

These would be great for half-hidden monsters/characters, where you don't need visible legs (such as peering through a window, hiding behind a tombstone, being cooked in a witch's cauldron, standing on the deck of a pirate ship, etc).

[@StiltbeastStudios]

indeed!

[@gagecurran8104]

You should make a mini elf out of one of those for the off season Christmas event!!!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

I will for next year, this year was pretty crazy time wise

[@grapplinggorilla7968]

Another great video! You need to be on TV. Best instruction of this type that I have ever seen.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

Wow, thanks!

[@shawntannehill]

This is such a great idea. There are so many directions you could go in.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

YES! I want to see them all!

[@lindaraphael2636]

I recently found you (you were lost..to me). Such cool stuff! So far I've made 3 cemetery statues and now making a few bucket buddies for work. Love Halloween and the people at work look forward to the decor. Thanks so much.

[@robertwhite5804]

You did it again. You never cease to amaze me. Now I can make a small army for Halloween

[@StiltbeastStudios]

YES! make a small army! I want to see it!

[@JoeyCuz]

Thank you for sharing this video. My sons steam lab in school ( they give them material and they have the make stuff) project was to make a monster for halloween and this worked out perfectly. We now have a mini Grim Reaper in our mini grave yard (which is what my son made ) and I made the guy from the movie Scream. This is was a great father and son project. Awesome job and thank you

[@Blamtastic19]

Thank you. I made a little scare crow. Pretty cool idea buddy. I love all your videos. I’m making more this Halloween

[@StiltbeastStudios]

very cool, yeah I can see an army of little dudes running around.

[@johnc6228]

It's great the way the double thick center is a platform for a motor.

[@StiltbeastStudios]

It is, and the wall of the bucket is strong enough to support levers or four bar mechanisms.

[@robsthings]

Yay! I can make a buddy!

[@StiltbeastStudios]

sometimes all we need is a buddy.

[@Raynestorm1968]

I just love your videos so much! Thank you for sharing all your creativity and talent. I wish I lived more local to you, I would be coming around begging you for a job, or at the very least asking you if I could watch you work 😀 Is there a video where we can see all your little animated goblins?

not yet, but I will try to work on one

the Makita rotozip looks to be a cordless version just like that dremel
