Thread: After the FCG its a MIB.

Tweet

Carrying on the quest to build my own props with the some great guidance from the forum, i decided that because the FCG went well i would have a go at an MIB, once again its a cheap and cheerful prop made with mostly things i already had.

A wiper motor, PC power supply, used for the motor, sound box and lights, a cam made from half inch plywood, a cam follower made from an old towel rail, plastic chain, old motion sensor from a security light and various metal fittings i found in the shed.

It turned out fine and works perfect, not to keen on the eyes though, will probably just go for a red strobe inside the box, i used the eyes because they were part of an old shop bought prop i ripped the sound box, hands and eyes from.
The box had been lying about the garage for years
