Help with working candy hand, please?


Recommended Posts

So my hs dd made a candy neuron model and now her younger sister is wondering if there's a way to make a candy model hand that moves when you pull on the "tendons".

 

Here's the "robot hand" and the candy neuron activities that got her thinking about it.

So, anyone want to help?

 

I'm thinking maybe some kind of gummy wormish hand (Alton Brown had a recipe for gummy worms that can maybe firm up inside of a cookie cutter type hand mold) with some pull n peel twizzlers for tendons. Not sure what to do about the joints in the hand.

 

Anyone???
