rebar

Hello! Going over the top this year (weather permitting). I have three groups of items that I am looking for quick and dirty suggestions for use: 1) A half dozen large, lightweight bats, poised for flying, not hanging. I have two tree out front, could theoretically string a ling between, hang...

Hey guys, I have a pose and stay skeleton still in the box from a few years ago. I may incorporate him into one of my graves I think. i want him holding a shovel with his foot on it as if he was digging it. What is the best way to stabilize him into the ground for this? What have some of you...

A winter project I've been picking away at. Stands a bit under 5 ft tall. The small lantern can be removed if we decide not to display it. The prop uses a piece of 3/4" pvc pipe and will slide over a piece of rebar. Prop is ready for paint as soon as the weather breaks. Will post pics when it's...

I am just curious as to any modifications people had made to the horse. My first thought was that I did not like the support stand and so I was planning to put metal rods in the legs and have them fit over rebar in the ground. But before I started cutting into it I thought I would see if anyone...

We only have two ornamental trees in our front space so not a ton of branches to hang stuff from. Making a few things that we can use to hang our witch lanterns. Finished this one today. Made a simple witch lantern and an "S" hook from a coat hanger. It's built over a piece of 3/4 " pvc and will...

The good part of this weeks rain, the rebar will be easier to remove! :) My question is, does anyone have a rebar removing tool?? I've seen and even used a tool to remove metal fence post (snow fence post). Handle with leverage and a chain around the post. There should be a leverage handle...

I am slowly ramping up my yard to become a walk through grave yard, but the tombstones that I use are strapped to rebar on the back. Great to look at from the front and definitely not blowing over, but I'm a perfectionist so I don't want people to see the back and ruin the effect. So I devised...

Over the years I've seen the trees to use as props get cheaper and cheaper. So I'm starting to weld my own strong trees. I use rebar and cable cut into short lengths. As you can see from the pictures I've tried to make them look scary.

My kids have been wanting to add a Jack Skellington to our display for a couple of years now, and he's finally in. We got one of the hanging jacks, made a base with a piece of reinforcement roofing steel from Home Depot, welded two lengths of 3/8" rebar to the base, and slid the legs over the...

Hey guys. It has been quite awhile since I have been here. I have made quite a few pvc framed figures over the years, this big guy is an example. Anyway, they have been in my yard in years past, anchored down by rebar. I usually hammer in the rebar right into the soil and leave about a foot...

I never thought I was going to get this guy done, but he's finished and we put him out in the yard yesterday. I kinda felt like a moron though. :) We initially put him out on his mannequin stand. We drilled two holes in the stand, hammered two 4' lengths of 3/8" rebar through the holes, and...

Hello! I recently decided to remake some foam tombstones I made back in 1999 before the internet was so vast and wonderful. They were just cut into some basic tombstone shapes and painted. Now that I have access to all you wonderful people AND many more years of crafting and making experience...
