Very cool prop, I was wondering where you get a glass drill bit? I didn't even know they made such a thing. I am doing something similar with my witch scene this year and didn't know where i could get a nice potion looking bottle and how i was going to get a hole in the bottle even if i did find one.

go to "drillglass.com" the bits cost around $20.00, I purchased the 3/8". Hey thanks for looking.

That's awesome ! You did a great job :)

[PerfessorEvil]

Nice! I've been thinking about doing this project... may have to move it up the priority list.

[Dark Angel 27]

[morbid mike]

awesome job very cool idea I got some good ideas now thanx for sharing

[Hallowennie315]

This is so great! I would love to do something like this! (Also, I love the bird! Is it yours or did it find its way to the pirate)

[Joiseygal]

Great job! This a prop that looks like it can stay in that spot all year long. I love the part in the video when you had the parrot on the pirates shoulder. The parrot was thinking, "Hey you drunk try not getting your rum all over me!"

[Shier Terror]

I want to see a video on the animated parrot. It looks so real!

[pirate]

Thanks for comments, yes, all 7 of my skeletons stay out all year round. The rum drinkin pirate is my recent project but all others are going on 1 to 2 years on display. I will soon be putting a video together at night so you can see the LED landscape lights.

Yes, Ziggy the parrot is our newest addition to our family, he is starting to talk and when he gets going........AAAARRRRRHHHH!!!!!!

Thanks again for looking and sharing.

Heh, be careful. Our parrot swears like a sailor. I don't know where he picked that up from :rolleyes:

[RacerX45]

Great job! Now I want to make one. He'd look great on my pirate ship. Adding him to the "list". Thanks for the great tutorial!

I'm currently working on my rum drinking pirate and will use the idea of the copper line to help add strength to the arm. I'm using a painted plastic water bottle to reduce the weight on the arm.
Thanks for the video!

[Dark Angel 27]

yes, we want to see the rest of your pirate crew! arrrr!
