I have been doing magic for 30 years but only in the past year have I added balloons. I have some 360s that I am not sure what to make. I have tried a simple figure using just one 360 for head, body and two big feet. I tried to make a bunny out of it which was ok but not as nice as the bunny I make with 260s.
I have been thinking about a bird or specifically a parrot but not sure how to do it. Does anyone have some ideas for 360 figures? Thanks.

I know Don Caldwell does a lot with 350's. Check out his Bat car. Also Bad to the Balloon has a really cool elephant hat that uses a gray 350.

Anything you can make out of a 260 can be made using 350's or 360's. You may need to use more of them. You just tie in a new balloon at an appropriate point. You can also make the same figure super big by using 646's or 660's. You can make things smaller by using 160's. I do this all the time, and I know I'm not the only one!!

I make 50 percent of all my creations (or more) in 350's.. Don Caldwell "Spongbob Hat" is mostly 350's and great!
There are 360's however those are Betallatex |

Just like everyone here has said, Anything 260 can be made out of 350's.
Don't berate yourself for saying 360 - that's a Betallic size 3"x60" instead of 50". When I get asked for a sword, I usually use one 350 (color choice of the kid) and a 260 for the handle. Fully inflate the 350/360, delfate the 1/4 closest to the nozzle and tie off (this will leave you with a long nozzle). Inflate the 260 and leave a 5" tail. Make a 1" pinch twist 7" up from the 350 nozzle, wrap the 260 around and secure to the pinch twist. 8" soft bubble 2 - 1" pinch twists. tie the 350 nozzle into the double pinch twists ans discard everything else. It's fast and colorful. I used to just use these as my lightsabers but now I use them for almost all of my swords. |
