Whatcha planning to put on it?Hi guys,
Just thought I would post some pics of my mannequin build.
About 10 hours build time start to finish including the wrapping process.

I'm also thinking of ways to build one. Besides the pipes, what did you use for the inside when you taped the whole thing? And is it measured to your own body or just winged it?

I wish it wasnt such a chore to ask my girlfriend for help doing things like this. To ask her to help me do my torso, get her to do it, and then to do it was a just a ****ing nightmare.
I bet if I had a local girl that shared the same interests as me to help make the torso for me; her attitude would change 180 degrees.
That's why the universe invented family: they already know how weird we are, and will begrudgingly help us...because they know we're not going to go away. :lolI bet you are right :rolleyes
Would sometimes also be nice to not get 'that look' when you mention that you are building this or that.

Thoramyre, that second picture of the "build" is hilarious. Looks like it came out great. Good luck with your builds.

Oh nice, thanks for the pictures too. Good luck on the build![]()
I'm looking into making a mannequin myself.
So quick question. After you wrap yourself up in duck tape how do you get out of it?
You will need some help. A VERY sharp, good pair of scissors and a little patience. She cut up the back of each leg making an inverted "V" over my tail bone at the small of my back, then straight up my spine. Then across the shoulders down the back of each arm. Then wriggle out carefully.
