This year was our first year in the new house, and the first year we did more than a pumpkin or two.
It was a great hit.
I had a lot of projects that got completed, and a few that I just didn't have time to do (just started playing with my prop-1 last night!)
Things I completed:
o Reinforced all my tombstones with pvc pipe & gorilla glue.
o Made a trash can fog chiller
o Soldered way too many LEDs (from a soldering standpoint.. need more for the graveyard!) all powered from the battery I took out of my garden tractor
o Created a countdown sign
[o Created a FCG
Things that didn't get finished:
o Ankle tickler (all assembled, but I needed a 24v power supply and a quick connect fitting for the air hose)
o Tombstone pop-up (ran out of aluminum so this one is going to take some work)
Countdown Sign:
Graveyard:
**itco Prop that actually looked great!:
Rat Funeral (was going to be the "set up" for my ankle tickler):

That is great. I love the way each individual head stone is illuminated instead of the the usual flood light. Cool!

great job, the rats are great, great lighting too.
I have flying monkeys- and I'm not afraid to use them!
