I love it. Very gruesome.

Fun and easy to make!

WOOHOO!!!!! somebody did it! It looks great! I was intending on doing this next year to hide a fog chiller... so that a garbage can makes sense out in my yard. I didnt know how to start... Thanks for leading the way!
A question or two: While making it, did you just prop that up with a plastic bag and spray the foam all in there until it hardened, or did you make it out of the can to fit somehow? Your topper does come out correct?

Great idea - certainly shaved a few bucks off from Gore Galore.

I simply cut out a piece of cardboard to match the shape of the trash can and fit in about 4 inches down. I also lined the top inside edge with cardboard.
I had to cut it a little around the edges to make it come out with a large kitchen knife but it was only stuck in a couple of places.

Aww hell... aww HEEEEEELLLLLLL......

And I have a 55 gallon drum I could use for this idea...... NO! Can't steal it! This is all yours!

Excellent!

The trash can is awesome, love it. If available I might try turning the lid upside down and securing it to the inside of the can. Then you have less to fill foam to fill the container with. Great idea I love it.

this looks great... what a great way to use extra parts. i also like the idea to use it as a way to hide the fog chiller

That is awesome! I have an old trash can that needs some dressing up for this year's display!

 

[dmorningstar]

Can you explain how you put this together?

Here is my take on this awesome easy prop.

Looks great, would be excellent for topping a cauldron.
