    I am working on the milk crate graveyard collums and am needing "the great stuff" to finish. Where do you guys buy this? I have a local Lowe's and Walmart; I am not sure if this is the actural name of the product. So my questions are where can I purchase it and is "the great stuff" the correct name when I go looking? Thanks!

    That's the name "Great Stuff". You can find it at any home store i.e. Lowe's, Home depot etc.. It comes in a red can with yellow cap. Usually around $5 a can.

    I buy it at Lowe's and it's 2 cans packaged together. Cheaper that way.

    It is called Great Stuff by Dow and you can buy it at both Lowes and Walmart. Here is the link to their homepage and it will tell you where else you can buy it.

    FYI ... you can also get a generic version at Walmart. It's triple expanding foam and a bit cheaper. For home use I would use the real Great Stuff, but the generic foam is great for props.

    Oh quick warning though... It is triple expanding so if you want smaller ropes, guts or vines this may be too much.

    Geez, I love you guys! You always come through for me!! Thanks

    Badoleross: pm me and I will send you the link I got from a forum member that shows you an easy way to make the collums with milk crates. I am on a budget and I think these will turn out just fine for my graveyard entrance. But I plan on putting on the pictures of the process as soon as I am finished.

    Just a Great Stuff suggestion...

    Spray down! Lay the object on the ground with the side you want to spray facing up and spray down onto it. You get better control gently pressing the trigger a little at a time until you get the flow you want, and by spraying down the foam doesn't glop down and fall onto your shoes.
