Thread: My First Prop - The Eletric Chair.

Tweet

Ok so i followed a very good tutorial on here and i am nearly finished my electric chair, the light shown flickers and i will need to add 1 more to the other side,i used the sander idea to get the vibration and it works great. this was all built out of scrap wood i had lying around so it cost me nothing, let me know your opinions. thanks



And




i am going to add some ankle and wrist locks and may do something with the color( would any one have any ideas) I will upload the finished article once complete.

WOW!! looks great!! I really like the color it is now!

I think the color looks fine, but the pics may be different than it looks in person.

You could take a propane torch and give it some burn marks

that is a real good idea that's next on the agenda :-)

for now this is what the nearly finished product looks like :


and

great idea i like the high voltage. and also the lights on the top as conductors. are you going to sit in the chair and then jump out at trick or treaters?

check out my electric chair. the figure moves with the help of a jigsaw and sound boxes hooked up to it all pick up the sounds of rattling chains and electricution. the light on the top flickers and the body shakes forward and backward. the red light revolves. and a strobe light underneath as well as a fog machine add t the burining and electrifying effect.

Thats a great chair you have built also, i like the idea of using the Eletric Saw to move your figure. How did u attach your figure to the jig saw, and did u just run the saw at normal speed( very fast ) or did u reduce the speed in some way?
