    I am 11 and I enjoy crafting large things and sewing and I am thinking of being a miniature one for halloween! I am going to buy the supplies and get my dad to help me make the stilts and when the costume is done I will walk around town with it on!

    Hey Kevin, I’m commenting to thank you for the skin walker videos. I built mine recently. It’s a blast and I’ve scared quite a few people in it. Thanks for showing me how to make it, you are awesome and I appreciate you very much.

    Hi Kevin, I am trying to order some foam for this costume but when I looked on the foamforyou website, I found a gazillion different types but I have no idea which go get. Can you make a suggestion? Thanks!!

    I'm only 5'4, for the leg stilts and foot platform, should I shorten everything and make things smaller to fit my calf and shoes better?

    • @kmiller81
      @kmiller81  7 років тому +1

      I'd do everything to spec and see where the calf cuff would be. Then you can cut the top of the stilt down as needed. By the same token, if you find that the crutches are too long (tilting you backwards) you can cut the wooden dowels to length.

    What is the total length of that stilt? Would drywall stilts from Amazon work as well? I bought the 18-30 inch ones?

    • @kmiller81
      @kmiller81  2 роки тому

      They should work. You can make it as tall as is comfortable for you and build the leg covering around them.
