Follow Up on Ventriloquist Figure Cases

The other day I wrote about ventriloquist figure cases (if you missed the blog, click here).

Here’s a follow up about ventriloquist figure cases from a couple of readers of the blog, Tom Conner and Ben Veenkamp.

Here’s Ben email and picture:

Hey Dan,

Just reading your post about Cases For Ventriloquist Figures and thought I’d send you a couple of images of a case I customized for MJ. to share on your blog post.

Basically I used a roll of convoluted foam and brush on contact cement, the aerosol type tended to burn the foam. I kept the straps inside the case so I can strap MJ in securely.

Any ways thought you might like to see it :)

All the best

Here’s the email and pictures from Tom:

Hi Dan, I just read your blog today about case’s for hard dummys.Well last year I purchased a Knucklehead Smiff replica from Jerry Layne and wanted a case to put him in. So I got a trunk from wal-mart and did exactly what you mentioned in your blog lined it with foam worked out pretty good, also did a couple old suitcase’s too. Just wanted to share a picture of one I did.

Regards,
Tom Conner
