Thread: My crypt in progress

Tweet

I have been working on a crypt, inspired by TK's work of late. I am putting my own twist on it. Take a look.

It's still a work in progress, but I hope to be putting foamboard on it for the walls by next week.

Good start....I'm jealous of you guys that are actually building...I'm still in the gathering stage...I keep telling myself I have four months to go..

BTW: I was looking at your pics....what's the measurements on your ground breaker coffin..I can count the boards but not all pallet boards are the same width

Looks great, alucard, can't wait to see the finished product!

Wow, Alucard! Just the frame of this thing looks awesome! I cannot wait to see it completed! What type of material will you use to create the walls?

Can't wait to see more of your progress =)

SB,

You only have 125 days left to work on projects! Get started!

BTW: My groundbreaker coffin is made from a pallet that had wider boards on each end of its top. I took all the smaller boards that were the same width and made the front. Then used the wider boards on the sides and top with any of the left over smaller ones. I just through it all together trying to use just one pallet. I can get you the measurements when I get back in my shop.

Hey all,

I was able to get some more work completed on my crypt. Please let me know what you think.

I will be using the pink foam board that many others use for columns for the sides. I hope to do something unique on the front of the crypt's facade. Maybe carve it out like a tombstone and light it up. There will be a FCG inside with a black light. Please let me know what you guys think so far.

Looks great. I like the idea of the FCG inside.

OK, I began work on the foam board walls today. The foam board cut easily, but what a pain putting it all on the frame. This is my first time working with foam board. I was able to finish enough of the front facade to add the PVC candle shelves. Check out the new pics in my album and let me know what you think.

I have been working on the foamboard walls for the crypt. Just need to finish the roof and then on to painting!
