Glad I found your Pinterest page... EXCELLENT IDEA to do that... It lead me to here... Thank you for telling me about that... (I am so stealing this idea, you do know that... LOL) ... when I open up my Acting Studio... Pinterest is a great idea too... of course RU-vid is Fantastic.
Thank you so much for this video... we've done a garage haunt for the past several years and we love using the Chromadepth glasses (everyone is always so amazed with them), but we've always used black plastic. Using landscaping fabric seems like a great idea. Great job you did with the designs on the panels as well. Love it!
Wow! So easy and cheap! I love the landscape fabric idea. We are doing our first home haunt this year and my son wants to make walls so I'm so glad you posted this video! We are building these for sure. Thank you!
Glad this is helpful - they were durable as well. Just be sure to buy the Pro grade of the fabric. The similar stuff I see at Home Depot is too thin. I used DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro (6 x 300'). It's polypropylene fabric and was able to get it a huge nursery that carries supplies for landscapers. You can also find it at Granger: www.grainger.com/product/DEWITT-Weed-Barrier-1ECB9
I do love that Hall of Flames section. It is very disorientating! When I designed the panels I planned on dismantling them each year to get them back down into the basement. Luckily, they just fit to go down there. I've never tested to see if the staples alone are good enough to hold the fabric on. I've been concerned that after a while the fabric would tear off. But that stuff is pretty strong so I would at least try it out to see.
Hey thanks so much. Yeah I just hated the shininess of black plastic and I just so happened to be doing a landscape project. BING! The light bulb went off.
Thanks. I haven't had that happen yet (falling into them). A few people have bumped into them but because they are safety pinned to other panels they reinforce each other and take the hit great.
you could add on those little stake looking pieces of wood so it digs into the ground and if theres wind you cut a U shape all over it so if theres no wind its closed but if it is windy then it will flow right through if you did it right
Aww, my comment never posted yesterday. Well, here it is again! Had to put on my Chromadepths for that last part, and WOW. The 3D application is amazing! In the last hall with the fire, it seems like there's no where to go - you actually feel like you're trapped in flames...it's an awesome effect. So instead of going through all the trouble of velcro, why not just staple the fabric right onto the frame? Do you roll up the fabric and dismantle completely every year?
Thanks! I got mine at a huge nursery here in KC. It's called DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro 6300. It's what the pro's use. I see that Grainger also carries it. Don't get the stuff at Home Depot - it's much thinner.
I'm just a home haunt - we just have a short little display for the neighborhood kids. Don't charge or anything so no need for certifications. I do keep safety in mind at all times. One of the reasons I have all wiring suspended from the ceiling so there isn't any tripping hazards.
I got mine from a large local nursery that also markets to pro landscapers. IN addition you could also get it from Grainger. It's called DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro.
The fabric walls are actually very tough and the way they reinforce each other when they are up I feel pretty confident that it could handle a kid. Now a drunk parent???? ;)
WOW! HUGE GARAGE!! Subscribing!!!! haha great video! I wish I could do something like this every year... sucks living with parents that don't support my Halloween Craziness! They have let me do haunts in my garage before but I always have to fight and beg them for permission... Keep the videos coming!!!
@Scaryladyvideos thanks im gonna try them out this year i just always thought i had to use 2x4's and plywood and by the way your tutorials are so helpful and you are very talented great job
It's about $10 for a one-sided panel. The landscape fabric I use costs about $5 per side. Add in furring strips and Velcro and I think $10 is a good figure to base it on.
I love your haunt panels, was wondering about using this technique on canvas tarps (cut down to size of course) then painting with black exterior paint, then the gesso & fluorescent paint, or should I use the gesso overall first? Do you think the paint would stick to the back if it were removed from the frame and rolled for storage? I've never tried anything like this before. I love your tutorials, thanks for sharing. I hope you're enjoying Austin!
Canvas would work great - in fact that's what I wanted to do but couldn't swing the cost. You may also want to look into getting black canvas from a theatre supply company like Rose. That would save you the step of painting them black. Also, you may not have to do gesso if the paint doesn't get sucked into that fabric. Do a test first and that may also save you another step. But, some paints look better with the white underneath to make it pop more. Up to you. And yes, loving Austin :)
Yeah, I'm the one who gets the Home Depot gift certificates ;) The batteries do okay but I have a quick charger on the wall (with an extra battery) and so I always have a fresh one at the ready. I get a good two hours of drilling on one charge.
Thanks :) Get a projector to help project the image onto the screen. Then it's easy-peasy :) If you haven't seen this video yet to show you how it's done here it is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IwEVsE-pPQc.html
Gracias, ¿Esta pintura la a conseguido por litro? ¿Para El efecto 3D se necesitan las gafas Chromadepth verdad? Este año realizará alguna saca del terror en su garage, me fascinan sus videos, muy chulos, espero que suba este años videos
@@andymorales3133 Me alegra que te gusten los videos y encantados de ayudarte. Necesitas gafas 3D de Chromadepth. Yo diría que planee usar alrededor de 2 tazas de pintura por panel. Por favor, echa un vistazo a este tutorial totalmente wriiten que puede ayudar a cualquier pregunta adicional. Está en inglés, pero espero que ansers suficiente: www.halloweenforum.com/threads/painting-chromadepth-3d-panels.205431/
@@andymorales3133 Más o menos. Es tela de paisaje, pero de la clase pesada. Es polypropylene. Aquí está un enlace a lo que usé: www.dewittcompany.com/DeWitt_Weed-Barrier_PRO_Black__3_nbspOZ__.aspx?productid=71&categoryid=46
Yeah, I thought I heard you mumbling this over the phone: "...but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire..."
you'll need something like this... (walmartcom)/ip/ITW-40088-22-Caliber-Single-Shot-Trigger-Operated-Powder-Actuated/21130777 that'll secure the wall straight into the ground. 2-3 shots per panel (plus other safety precautions) and the wall wont be going anywhere BUT, i have not used this gun on these kind of panels. i only use plywood walls with 2x4 for the frame, costly, but much sturdier, will last longer, and handle weather much better than cloth.
It's about $10 for a one-sided panel. The landscape fabric I use costs about $5 per side. Add in furring strips and Velcro and I think $10 is a good figure to base it on.
