hey everyone I'm back in workshop once again working on a project for this year's haunted forest now as everybody knows a haunted house or honored forest is never complete without skeletons and corpses so that's what I'm working on the problem is but most people make their corpses to make them out of pre-built skeleton plastic skeletons they buy online or any you know a Halloween store and these tend to run upwards of eighty to a hundred dollars for a decent one so I thought I'm going to build mine from scratch using regular parts pieces I have laying around so I think it's turned out pretty good but I'll let you be the judge check it out okay keep in mind this is still a work in progress but it has been relatively cheap okay this is a skeleton that I have so far his bones are predominantly made of PVC pipe ribcage is electrical romex wrapped in newspaper wrapped in duct tape pretty much anything that I could find a lot of coat hanger wire see pelvic bones I believe well it used to be an ice-cream bucket a lot of duct tape so on and so forth we have some neoprene tubing for some of the tendons around the neck also you see his hand that's what I want to finish the result to kind of look like he's going to have some dead skin I'm just using plastic saran wrap for that so I just kind of did a test on his hand they have the other hand it's not quite finished yet that's what he will look like so he can tell I'm not really going into too much detail as far as how the skeleton actually looks because he is going to have a skin he's going to be more of like a corpse rotting corpse instead of a skeleton so that's what I have so far turn around look out from the back and all I did here with the rib cage I thought this was well I screwed some boards in there because I originally screwed it right to right to the PVC pipe I screwed each one of these romex wires he stood right to the PVC pipe but I didn't think that they were big enough so I wanted to extend that out so I screwed some boards to the pipe and then well screwed the RO max to those boards and then I went through and took some hot glue sticks I just laid them on there and melted them with the heat gun that actually worked very very well it's kind of surprised about that but the cool thing is I know each of his ligaments look like they're just taped together but they're actually wired together I'll just let him bounce and get a better view here they're actually wired together with coat hanger wire so he does have a full range of I'm not a full range but he is articulated pretty much any joint he can stand up for it there's a there's a shot of this one of his feet there and the big toe is made of a glue stick and the rest are just small neoprene hoses with wires inside of them so I mean really there is no right way to do this I'm just finding whatever I can and it's actually ending up looking like a pretty good skeleton so far so I'll keep you updated as I go on with this and I'll see you hopefully he's going to turn out pretty nasty-looking so thanks for watching
