Halloween Crypt with Moving Top

My version of a ground-level crypt that has a top that opens wide enough for whatever is inside to get out. I have yet to work on the internal effects. I'm planning to combine this prop with my ghostly footprints--the crypt opens and footprints move from the crypt to...not sure yet.

Incredible and inspiring work as usual!

Most that I have seen and also tried myself is the lid either lifting up or only a small corner being exposed before it closes just love this full range of motion that you have put into the lid. Very much appreciate the full explanation along with the video. Your design for the look of the lid is exceptional.👻🎃⚰️💀

Thanks, but I confess the idea for the two guiding PVC pipes came from someone else's video.

This looks wonderful!

Fantastic! I really appreciate the explanations into the choices you made and the pros and cons of each (eg. wood putty vs spackle for the lid)

@ghostofautumnwood6379 Год назад

It remains to be seen how the spackle holds up outdoors. I'm hoping the Drylock paint blocks the moisture from it. It not, patch and repeat.

LOVE THIS! The only constructive suggestion I would make is to please make the font size of your description larger so that those of us with older decrepit eyes can read it more easily. Cheers!

@ghostofautumnwood6379 Год назад

I know what you mean about the fonts. Unfortunately iMovie only has two font sizes for that style of title bar: too big or too small. Maybe time to learn another video editor.

@@ghostofautumnwood6379 I can adapt 🙂

I’m surprised that a wiper motor is strong enough to move a thing as heavy as the lid!

@ghostofautumnwood6379 Месяц назад

I doubt it would have worked without the roller bearings along the top. I've built a larger crypt this year with its lid on an incline. A wiper motor struggles to move it, so I'm probably going to replace it with a linear actuator, which is stronger but has a less interesting movement.
