August 2008 Make & Take!

Make & Takes No Comments

If you haven’t been logging into our Discussion Forums, then you missed the details on this month’s get together. Man, it was a great one! WeLive4Halloween offered up her place at the last minute and welcomed us ‘weenie’s’ with open arms! We cannot thank her family (and pets!) enough!

Randy drove 2.5 hours from Tucson to be here, and brough all kinds of goodies with him! His Floating Candelabra rig was just SUPER cool. To see this thing in person just really made a difference. He also brought his latex hands, and showed us all how he made them. Guys- these things are SOO much better than the ones you see online or in the stores! I am now set to make a few pairs this year myself (thanks for adding to my to do list, Randy!) He unveiled his super duty high power magnets and we discussed some killer ideas on how to levitate objects with those. Randy, you’re a stud, and it’s ALWAYS great to have you a part of this group!

I brought out a couple of my carpet glue zombies and explained how to make those. They were a big hit, and I believe everyone is planning on making some themselves this year. We discussed many, many things and it really got the ideas flowing with all of our haunts. It kicked me into High Gear for building props and finishing projects up on this year’s haunt.

Next month’s Make and Take is going to be incredible. Make sure you guys check it out in the forums for all the details- believe me, you won’t want to miss this! Check out all the pictures in the Photo Gallery for more!

Here’s a cool thing I’ve been meaning to make for a while now. I think this can be VERY handy for mass producing props (skulls, spiders, etc etc). What do you guys say- maybe our next make and take???

The Exorcist
This is the my Exorcist I displayed on halloween a couple years ago. I was so proud of it. I went way beyond to make it look as real as possible…also included some of the movie sound clips. People can from all over when word got out …some asked if I was going to have it out the following year….I didn’t though…she is kept for when my youngest is old enough to see her as nothing more than a doll.
