New to the forum, new to forums period, and relatively new to going "all out" on Halloween. My poor wife doesn't know what hit her. One year she's nagging me because I won't dress up for Halloween and am no fun, the next year she can't get me out of the garage at night because I'm behind on the build (I put a few 2008 photos up on an album). Now I'm hooked. For 2009 I'm trying my hand at animatronics, so wish me luck. I've seen tons of great tips and projects here so far, and am looking forward to talking with ya'll.

Hi Gumba.
Welcome aboard shipmate. (or should I say Inmate...)

I'm hoping to start with animatronics myself this year, so we could have a competition to see who will be first to blind, maim or kill a passerby or neighbour.

Great job on the pirate ship, by the way.

thanks, all. Baron S...no blood yet, but I did make my neighbor's kid cry already. Does that count?

It's a great start my friend.

One Halloween night, I told my wifes friends 6 year old that if she ever woke up and saw the tooth fairy, she would take her eyes as well. Shortly after that she began bed-wetting.

I still receive hate mail to this day.
