I LIKE IT.....good job. I'm trying to decide between one of these or a trash can trauma this year.

Well Oldsuy that was my dilema, I just wanted to try this and I was very impressed with the outcome.

Awesome work

I also want to thank Florida Spook for turning me on to Intermatic Home Systems, for remote controlling the prop. It works awesome, if any of you are looking for remote controlling your props. 6 channel remote with outdoor rated modules that fire very fast. I would have to say real time responses. I purchased mine from Amazon.com Remote and modules.

That is great. I love the pop-up at the end with the evil Muh ha ha haaaaaaaaaa.....

Here are just a few more pictures of the build. I attached the prop to the lid using a custom made flat bar of steel, I welded a threaded rod nut used for extending threaded rod and then a clevis and I bolts with a plastic bushing purchased at Ace hardware, so that the prop would stay straight and pivot when the lid opened instead of staying the same position of the lid when it opened.

This is how I attached the prop to the lid with pivot.
