Elmer is a character from the Looney Tunes cartoons, created by Tex Avery in 1940. He is a slow-witted and easily confused man who wears a white hat and overalls. Elmer is often seen as a foil to Bugs Bunny, and is known for his catchphrase 'Shhh! Be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting wabbits!' Elmer Fudd is a gantry or framework used to support a crane or derrick, typically found in industrial settings.
