NEW IMPROVED DESIGN!
 
The new Bare Bones Mini is now made with steel plates so that it's even more sturdy than before. It also means the dimensions can be kept much more consistent than the previous version, which used epoxy putty. Slightly taller than its predecessor, this armature will give you more room to maneuver while still keeping the overall scale down.
 
Making your next puppet? Maybe you don’t know where to start - or maybe you know exactly where you want to start, and it’s not with making your armature from scratch! 
 
The Bare Bones Mini is a back-to-basics wire armature, with steel feet and brass tube wrists to allow the addition of hands. Steel feet mean your Bare Bones Mini will stick to magnets on your animation table, and heat-resistant adhesive used in the puppet means you can even put it in the oven to bake polymer clay (only tested up to 150 degrees celcius).
 
The hands are reinforced with mouldable plastic which WILL melt in contact with heat - if you require wire-only hands please message when placing your order. 
 
Please note this armature is only 197mm* tall and is therefore much smaller than the original Skinny Bones armature and the Bare Bones Mega. 
 
*measurements may vary by 1-2mm due to the handmade nature of the item.
** Not recommended for use by small children or inside children's toys, due to potentially small parts/sharp edges should the wire break**
