Announcing the second Central Pennsylvania Make-N-Take!

Mike and I had such a good time at the last that we decided it was a good idea to do another.

The next Make-N-Take will be held September 8, at 12:00PM at the same location as the first (Mechanicsburg, PA). The item or items to be made is up for discussion. Here's the annoncement page: http://www.boilingpondscemetery.com/...ake_n_take.htm

These Make-N-Takes will be an on-going thing to be held every other month with the exception of three months in a row from August through October. I will announce the events here and on the L list and put the item(s) to be made up for discussion unless already decided at the previous event.

So, Central PA (and surrounding) Haunters, shout-out and let me know what you want to build, design, concoct, throw-together, corpse, or otherwise devise.

Here are some thoughts for the September event:

- Corpsed Skeleton Hands (BIC pen method)
- LED spot lights
- Flying Crank Ghosts
- Monster Mud
- Foam Tombstones

Costs will be dependent upon the item we have decided will be built.

Forgot to mention. A decision will need to be made on what we will be building at the event by August 20 so I have enough time to order and have shipped whatever items are needed for the make. That gives everyone 2 weeks to make suggestions.

Reminder:
Still looking for suggestions and attendees for the September Make-N-Take. Need to have a finalized suggestion list by Moday August 20 so I have time to gather supplies.

Well, August 20 th has come and gone and the following suggestions have
been made for the September Make-N-Take:

1.) PVC pipe people
2.) duct tape doubles
4.) A giant eyeball hanging from a tendon party
5.) molding and casting skulls ( en masse) and skull bas-relief's (
maybe even make a mold or two from a positive )
6) Corpse Skeleton hands
7) Flying Crank Ghost

Time to decide:

I vote for PVC pipe people and/or duct tape doubles myself and possibly molding and casting
skulls. I figure with a chop saw, the PVC pipe people will not take too
long, and we can build while we wait for layers to dry in the
mold-making process (moot point if we use dragon skin or similar - $$$).

Reminder:

The next Central PA Make-N-Take is in just over 1 week. It has been decided that we will be making duct tape dummies, PVC people, and cast some skulls using silicone caulk.

Please let me know if you will be attending by September 5 so I can gather supplies and plan lunch. Official anouncement can be found on my website.

Another great time at a Central PA Make-N-Take...

The Monster Maze's Two Headed, Four Faced, Four Armed, Two Legged, Duct
Tape Dummy!

Being one of the tapees, I am surprised to say how unnerving it can be
being taped neck-to-toe.

All-In-All, another great time. Hope to see more of you at the October
Make-N-Take - It's going to be A Family Friendly Event!
