Bagpuss' Professor Yaffle from Scratch by Kevin D


Another rush of blood to the head and I've made a scratchbuilt replica of Professor Yaffle from Bagpuss!

Still, I needed a bookend!

    Once again, Kevin... another astonishing scratchbuild! Gaw... and to think I struggle with simple flat-pack bookshelves. Well done... it is a lovely piece of artwork :)

    Hi, nope, not building another one, I never like making something I've already made.

    I didn't use plans, the original prop has been on display at some point so there are plenty of photos about, I used them as references.

      Hi, he's 20cm from top of his head to tip of his tail. Don't know if that's right but it must be close.

    Professor Yaffle rebuked the mice and told them that making chocolate biscuits out of butter beans and breadcrumbs was impossible.
