    Hopefully, everyone here is enjoying their Memorial Day and honoring our fallen troops. Onto the prop...

    Made of 1/4" plywood for the backing and pallet wood.







    I have some left over 2" Mr. Chain to throw around it. The 400 Watt fogger will be piped in from the back with the ubiquitous flickering light. Not sure which tombstone will be behind - perhaps my Gothic tombstone since it is so tall.

    Very nice, I feel inspired to try and duplicate. I have a lot of pallet wood at my disposal. Does it open or will it stay shut? Do you have in progress pics?

    The lid opens, but I am going to keep it closed since I'll be blowing chilled fog into it.

    No progress pics because I slammed this out in a few hours. Let me direct you to the tutorial I utilized:

    Very well done! Love your tombstone too! I have been wanting to make a full size toe pincher, but I have such limited storage space.

    I understand you're storage concerns, I built a full sized toe pincher coffin a couple years back, it lives in my parents basement, I'm sure they love it ;>)

    That looks awesome, and I like the little skellies on the tombstone!
