The Doll Forum

Despite my trying to be careful of my tpe dolls hands and fingers I have wires poking up through them. Can someone here give me advice on how to make repairs to her and get rid of the dangerous wires? I would prefer to re-attach them but am at a loss on how to do so, or the anatomy of this area of her body. Thanks so much.

Hi there, I've done a few finger wire replacements, here's a link to the page in my repair thread that also has a link to a series of videos where I detail what I did, hope it's of help.

My favorite repair method thread

I received the hand plates and finger bones Yesterday (a day early). I have all the materials I need now except for the metric eye bolts. They are on back order. Also i need to pick up hot air gun and a I,R, temp. gun.

I linked to the page that shows the final product but the entire thread is a good learning experience.

I have several hand repair threads bookmarked including Arthur1960's thread. I like the idea of jointed fingers so I waaited for MFCreations version to go to market. Here is a picture of his assembled replacement hands.
