My wife had a great idea for our haunted house tonight. I was going to be in a corner with some other props and jump up to scare people on their way out of the room. While trying to figure out the setting my wife suggested making a cage. It's perfect since the room is a mad scientist's lab.
So... how to make a cage? I'm thinking of doing something very simple. Galvanized EMT conduit for the bars (which are cheap and useful for future projects) and 2x4's painted black for the base, middle and top. It'll be three sided and just slid in place around me (no floor or roof). The boards will be connected to each other to make a rigid structure and slipped over the conduit. I was going to use junction collars on some of the bars to hold up the middle and top wood sections.
Thoughts?
