    Looks great. I just finished my door. I do not have the door knob pneumatic. What kind of air cylinder did you use for the jiggle. Does it run off the #4 track of the DTMS board?

    What do you guys estimate was your average final cost for this prop. I've been wanting to do one for a while but know nothing of pneumatics or controllers. I would like a rough idea before i jump in feet first and end up running out of cash.

    KC, the door jiggle runs off #4 DTMF Relay and a solenoid. I have Nurse Escape and that uses #4 channel. You can program the Pico Boo to operate the door handle also if need be.

    FM, I have 600.00 into it at least.

    Hi Rez vid
    pico boo
    DTMF
    Pneumatics
    HDTV
    DVD
    construction materials

    It all adds up!

    I was able to scavenge Ebay and came in at just under $400 not including the compressor and the laptop I use to run mine.

    Captpete, is okay for others to share their build photos here (vs going thru pages and pages on the main thread)?

    I'm not sure how that would work?

    We are going to use 4 way solenoids on ours, will that cause any issues with the door knob jiggle? i.e. do the dtmf codes quickly turn on and off for the door jiggle our is it more of a hard turn and then a few seconds before it turns it back off?

    BTW we will be in ours for about $450 to $500 when we finish.
