gym_ghost, got any pics of it you'd like to post?

[HallowSusieBoo]

I looked and all I saw were cartoons from Scott N. and a suit of armor, did I miss it?

oops sorry, didnt see the "show all albums"....never mind

Hallow Scott N. ! Hope you made your way through the pages to find the beginning of our hearse project. It is a pain to comb through it all - but I hope it was worth it.

By now - you probably found you have to go backwards to get at the beginning ( must be a sort of Alice in Wonderland approach to posting pics in albums! lol) Anyway - the very first pic is the pallet we started with. It is on the second page of albums and the second page of the photos in album one. Go figure. . .

This is the first photo - sorry if it all gets a bit overwhelming. . . chalk it up to "newbie enthusiasm!"

I gotta get in gear with this. I have some ideas for this project. I want to do a couple of different designs that will satisfy those who want to do a cheap version and those who want something more elaborate. In the next month or so I'll post some drawings and maybe an estimated cost sheet. I want to make prototypes so I can be accurate.

Hey HallowSusieBoo! Ive got that fence!

[Scott N.]

Hallow Scott N. (snip) Go figure. . .

yup I sure did, thank you!

Hey HallowSusieBoo! Ive got that fence!

Hallow EB!!
Don'tcha love that fence?! We started collecting the fence panels at sales over the past few seasons and we keep needing more. I blame the Forum for teaching us about making headstones! LOL I tell MysterE he wont need any fence at my real grave someday - just use the Halloween panels! Thankfully it's lightweight and stores easily. A big factor for us.
Our graveyard is growing like crazy - now it is hard to find matching fence styles - so we are mixing in a few that look to be made by the same company but with a different pattern. THey are the same height and have the same attachments.
Naturally - after spending all that $$ for fencing - I later see how to "make your own" on Halloween Forum using everything from pallets to PVC!!
Oh well - I guess that leaves more pallets for coffins and window boards!

Okay, after much procrastination I've started this project...


I've got a bit of finishing to do... but when it's done it'll look like this.



I'll post more as I progress.
