Next year I am going to be animating my flying Santa I use plastic window wireframes now. However next year I want to make one that is animated so the legs on the raindeer legs move and Santa waves as he flies high overhead. I was thinking of using 1/4 brake line tubing or maybe aluminum. I don't think I can use a hardware cloth or coro because the wind will catch it too easily. You can see santa flying here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMP4PUr-nNY.
Does anyone have any ideas on a good light weight design/material?
I just finished an Angel made out of 8 Gauge wire, I think it's used to hold chain link fence up. Anyway a roll of 100ft or so was only $8 from lowes. It seemed faily easy to work with but took some getting used to when welding it.
Just thought I would toss that out for you to consider.
