Comments: Just started looking for column ideas. Landed on your page and after looking at your how-to's I watched your time lapse setup and noticed your location in Utah. Our first trip out west from Indiana was last spring and we drove through Jordan down I-15, near your house. We loved Utah and nice to know there are fellow haunters out there. I saw also tou have Axworthy ghosts which is a project I am considering. I hear they are a pain. Anyway, it all looks great! --Tony |

I found your site and wow! You're great at what you do and the neighborhood is lucky to have you dong this. Keep up the great work it's appreciated as you know. One question, that mask on Caretaker, is that homemade? |

Comments: Hi Barry- You are exactly right. The shaft on the wiper motor was probably about 3/8" and the pulley bore 1/2". Since this project didn't require too much torque, I was able to get away with fitting a small spacer over the motor shaft. I used a small piece of PEX pipe that fit pretty well between the shaft and pulley bore. Then I tightened down the set screw on the pulley until it was snug. I think I also replaced the standard set screw with one that was a bit longer. This made the pulley slightly off center in rotation, but for this purpose it works just fine. |

Comments: Hiya, Dave! Just wanted to give you a big THANKS for all of the ideas I pulled from your Axworthy design. I tried several years ago with a much less elegant solution, and this year, put my Raven-Manor-inspired Axworthy in service. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT! (website is a link to the pics/vids that show my AFG in action) I love having two circuits of ghosts running at the same time...AND being able to have stable poles without tons of rope staking them in place. |

Comments: You truly do a great job, and I have to agree with Ted below, that this is the most relistic looking cemetery I'v seen yet. I'v been working on new graves for this season, and wanted to know your painting techniques. Is is rag-rolling, or sponge, or what? Also do you fill the tubes with ice and let reg. fog run through, or is a special fog machine? Thanks so much. -Drew |
