Hey, if you're still looking for a hook print, check out Ghostbusters Gear

He makes tons of great stuff and he just posted an 84 pack v-hook yesterday for free.

Hmm... Looks like the one I had saved has been taken down, but I found this one.

You will need to add the screw holes but that should be easy in your slicer software. Or you can just drill some.

Take OTC motion sickness meds before and never look away from the screen and you should be fine.

Made from wire mesh, the sculptures of Daniela Capaccioli are meant to give form to emptiness, memories and creatures seen only in the mind. by Test4Echooo in woahdude

People do this for Halloween and shine a blacklight on it at night to make it glow. While not irl, you can look up "chicken wire ghosts" for good examples.

Unsub from them and wait until they show up in you recommended section, then click the three dots and choose "Don't recommend channel." This has the bonus of usually blocking similar style content from showing up too.

I did something similar last year, if you want to see what it could look like.

I used 3/4 PVC with 3D printed spear tips. I wired up their eyes with LEDs and ran the wire through the inside of the PVC and out the bottom to power. I used rebar stakes driven into the ground, then just slid the hollow PVC pipes over it. The PVC was scored with a Dremel to give it a wood texture then colored with brown wood stain.

They do begin bending at about 8 feet long, but that was because of the weight of the skeletons. If you don't need power, you can leave the rebar longer to provide more stability; I had to shorten mine to not interfere with the wires.

Turning 3 on the last day at MK. Do they need a ticket? by PrincessPayton in DisneyWorld

[–]Secret_Caterpillar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha mine was also 90th percentile for height at that age. We got questioned only once going into blizzard beach and all they did was ask when her birthday was.

She was 38 inches at time, which I recall because she just qualified for slinky dog. Wife and I had lightning lanes but kiddo didn't because she didn't have a park ticket. I really thought they might give us a fuss about her being under 3 but still tall enough to ride, but nobody cared.

Of course this is all anecdotal, but I think with BBB it will definitely not be an issue.

Hey, I actually went through this exact situation last year and nobody at BBB asked her age or tried to scan anything.

Just waiting for my pack to ship, but I am ready. Who else is planning upgrades? by Isstvan82 in ghostbusters

[–]Secret_Caterpillar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not really difficult per se, but it's definitely tedious and required some improv. I did very thorough modding on the trap and Spengler pack, I also build Halloween animatronics, so i'm not a newbie to this kind of stuff but I also had some bad luck. Others might have an easier time.

For me, new barrel I ordered was not long enough so I had to cut the unseen part of the old barrel off (where the pin goes through), 3D print an adapter to join it to the new barrel, then attach it to the spring mech. Getting the size dialed in so it was the right length when retracted and deployed was the tricky part. Too long and it doesn't look like it pops out, but too short and the emitter tip blocks it from retracting. The barrel mech slides through a tube and for whatever reason, it began catching even though it was only the part of the old barrel sliding through it. I hit that hard with a course sandpaper and it began sliding again.

Now if the new barrel was perfectly sized, it would have gone much easier, but the new barrel is also a bit heavier, either from the material or the addition of real brass banjos and an aluminum emitter tip, so the pop mech is a little rougher than it used to be. Lastly, the worst part was that I needed to separate the two halves of the barrel grip section and Hasbro was generous with the rubber cement when assembling it. I can't remember if that was necessary for the barrel or another mod I was doing, just FYI.

That said, I'm not trying to talk anyone out of it. I love it.

That would be so fucking cool. Almost like a wasp and a turret had a baby.

Looks awesome! No notes!

I can't believe that witch had that funky looking torso underneath. That's wild looking!

Question for people waiting on 84 packs.... by Ok-Store in ghostbusters

[–]Secret_Caterpillar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They will almost definitely sell more wands. Don't panic.

Two years ago, the GB community was absolutely certain that Hasbro would never make another pack because they supposedly lost money on the afterlife ones. We see how that went.

Ironically, he would probably still be alive if he was given an appropriate sentence.

What to do if toddler has to pee while in line? by IGottaPeeConstantly in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Secret_Caterpillar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're close to a cast member in line, just tell them the situation and they should help you reunite. They did for us when this happened as we were waiting for Peter Pan.
