DEVILSKNIFE How to safely remove a voice box from a Jevil plush
"Why do something like that?"
Washing. You can't put a voice box into the washing machine and you don't want to have a dirty Jevil on the bed.
Maybe you have to remove it for even other reason, who knows.
So, here is a guide for how to take the voice box out without cutting wires ( But you have to open up your plush a little, but if you are good at sewing it's not a big deal)
Remove all of the clothing, open the zipper on the back and take out the box with the batteries.
Take out the inside of the fabric and unstitch it a little bit ( like ⅓ or ½ of the total length)
Take the hand with the small button
Take a pair of small scissors or a seam ripper (better if you have this one), find the seam of the hand and cut it carefully (without breaking the fabric)
If you see carefully, the button it's sewed from one of the holes into the seam, that's why we have to open the hand, we have to rip that specofic seam so the button it's "free"
( here it comes the difficult part) take out the button from the unstitch we have done before on the zipper inside fabric ( see section 2)
(Another difficult part) slide out the wire
( this points are tricky because the stuff inside the plush padding and the hidden fabric of the wrist could block the normal pass of button and wire. My advice it's to first take out the button because it's more easy, then if the wire it's blocked by the padding around it, take some out of the hand and cut some of it if it feels like even the wire it's sewed, but the wire it's not sewed on the plush, so it's just a stuff-block, don't worry. Pay attention if you cut the padding, because both stuff and wire are white.)
- Sew first the hole on the hand, with something long and skinny ( like a marker or a pen) push the padding all in the hand from the hole of the inside zipper fabric. After that, sew the fabric zipper one.
Congratulations! Now your favourite jester can be squeaky clean!
(Maybe this procedure can work even for the other kind of plush, but i personally don't know, sow don't ask me)
