Step 1: Build a cardboard puppet like the one shown in the photo or create your own! Use the paper fasteners to make joints.
Step 2: Build a mounting system to attach the puppet to the servo with skewers and cardboard.
I used a magnet to attach the puppet to the servo mounting system because magnets are awesome, but you can also use glue, tape, velcro, or a variety of other adhesives!
Step 3: Build a stand for the puppet:
- On an approx. 6 in. x 12 in. cardboard sheet, measure, mark, and cut a hole for the servo body so that the arms of the servo rest against the front of the cardboard sheet.
- Cut two triangles out of cardboard and glue them on the back of the stand so that the stand, well, stands upright!
- Cut a hole for the Micro:Bit wires to thread through and add two pushpins on the front to hold the Micro:Bit.
