LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Ok I do have a plan somewhat. here is what it is and as it looks right now. My idea. Will take some patience and some spare TPE...
I've done quite a bit of body work on cars. Why should a doll be much different? it's a "body"
Gonna try and fill with TPE and weld it all in nice (if possible) It'll fuse in with existing TPE, but my homemade tip will not work like it did on LuAnnes palm.
So I'll need to design a tip that will work better. something more round, blunt I feel I can fix this.
I do take precautions. Since I have painted cars and body work, Do have the PPE needed for safety. This job will require it!! No if.ands, buts!!!
Been stoned while painting from the fumes..it's not a fun thing!! maybe for you younger guys....the pounding head after is no joke!!
More on the way....

Thanks. Still in the process of making a tool to fuse material together better. I think it ought to work. I'm taking this job slow. I'm thinking once it is "improved" in appearance I'll apply a more permanent makeup to the area.Juncharted2 wrote:Good luck
Lots to learn. Learning by doing!!
Hopefully will not learn by a major mistake
Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Wrapped electrical wire around the iron tip, to create a "welding stick". Melts that TPE like nobody's business!! I started with a 1" length tip. Too hot!! it would easily split the TPE wherever I was working. Creating more problems.
2 inches seems just about right. Plus, the wire can be angled any which way you want (within reason). Low tech might just win again (Emphasis on "Might")
Did some more destruction testing on my test toy. Looks like a bubble gum fix, but when it is just practice. It'd take some time to make that look good. Can be done!! Just add more finesse! Getting a nice molten puddle. with no burning or smoke. It's like spreading hot glue. Using a fan and an open window, to blow fumes away and out. Just a precaution. There is no smoke. If any it's slight from material on the tip. being such a small tip. That's not much...
LuAnnes nerves are getting frazzled again... Me? naw! I have confidence all will be ok.... Slow and steady, wins the race!!

Too late it looked like a piece was missing. Possibly not. But It was very thin there since new. Not very strong.samara78 wrote:You don't need to melt anything's in there looks/looked like all the pieces could be micro stitched back in place
Already melted some material in there...so far so good! looking better already.
Thanks Samara!!
Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
On the mend! I'll play with it later on. Things like this, if I rush, make it much worse. In the meantime, have an idea to try when putting finishing touches on it.
that cloth trick I saw on here where they used a heat gun over breasts then patted cloth over to add texture.
I'll just glue some cloth on a stick, when gliding heat tip along surface. pat stick on "wet" surface... an idea anyway
I'll try almost anything once!!
It's a vagina.... LuAnne will have her own "look" to that All Vagina's are not all carbon copies are they? LOL
EDIT: By "play with it later" I do not mean THAT gentlemen!!)

Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Still some more "shaping" or "sculpting" to do. Hands were getting unsteady, was starting to get nervous LOL so I've left it at that for now. Never done this sort of thing before. I'd rather try it this way than with a glue. Read a few horror stories here about the glue Color of the spare TPE is off, some makeup should take care of that hopefullystones wrote:Looks like a great repair!
Thanks for the encouragement!!

Off to a great start though.
The hardest thing is cold joints, you’ll see them after you start using it again.
It’s ok you just will have to go over them here and there.
You can melt some TPE and mix a little bit of finely crushed powder makeup to match the color.
Just use a tiny amount.
Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Cold joints. Is that like air pockets? I've noticed on my test toy, fusion/melt looks good but when stretching can see small holes. As you may know, the thin material around will shrink in a nanosecond! LOL My test toy is a good practice thing. It is quite thin. Just a cheap toy. For a poor mans solder iron tip, It's working ok...Fantastic Plastic wrote:You’ll get better at it the more you do it.

Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Have not had a lot this round, so it will rest for now.
Able to clean up the insides some. Does not look as frayed.
Been experimenting with length of tips, making little blades
with the copper wire.
2 inch length seems to work the best. get the nicest melt.
It looks better than it did before I started, so it's winning for me
anyway.
Just more poor man ideas and solutions Second pic of inner not great but it does look somewhat better. I have to be in a good mood to do this stuff.
It'll all be ok!!
Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Gouged a little TPE from the tip on bottom left. It'll be ok.
Looks like a vagina.
Thinking it looks a lot better than it did. Once it gets colored in it will look ok (Maybe)
The art of all this!! it's fun when we don't make too many major mistakes!!
Re: LuAnne is going to get her vagina Refurbished :)
Just a bit more time on some small spots... and that is that!!
Not certain how tough it'll be. Time will tell!

Best work I've seen regarding.
Necessity is the mother of invention and your mindset was in the right place.
