Folks driving by must have wondered if there was going to be a mass burial.

Thanks everyone for the kind words! It definitely was a show stopper!!! Fortunately, I have great neighbors, whom may think we are am a bit odd, but support and enjoy our obsession!
In a week, we will do it all over again when we create the steel frames for our pneumatic Ground Breaker Coffins. The Pod and I are hosting a joint, multi-part build. This time, we will terrorize his neighbors with a coffin assembly line. A rough prototype of the prop is at

^Like it! We're wondering how long that poor skellie is going to stay in one piece, though

With the prototype, I'm not sure which would seld-destruct first, the skeleton of the coffin! In the actual prop, the coffin will be reinforced and the frame for the skeleton will use a much lower aire pressure, along with flow controls.

Looks really great! I did have a question though, can you move the delay time from when the coffin lid opens to when the skeleton sits up? I guess what I'm asking, do you think it would look cool to make it look like the skeleton is opening the doors to the coffin? Or have it sit up a little sooner after doors are open? If that can even be done or not. It's just a thought I had.

Yes - I used a program from a different prop to test out the Ground Breaker Coffin. Just wanted to test to see if everything worked. The actually program will have better timing.

Very nice! My wife gave me a laboratory quality skeleton for Christmas last year - best gift ever! Between Christmas and New Year's, I was in the garage making a Toe Pincher Coffin for it. The family knows I'm crazy, but the neighbors were really concerned!

Great thread Slanks!
I love Chicago and can't wait to visit again someday. Great group of haunters that live there. Must have been a fun build...real nice prop. Good luck with the rest of it!
