MIB Cam

[Nightshade]

Hi Zombie- I've always wanted to build a Monster in the Box display. My queston is what will work for making a cam since I don't have access to plastic stock or a milling machine? Your design for this is brilliant and not too difficult. Any suggestions. And thanks again for this great forum. Happy Haunting....

Well, you could cut out some squares of plywood, screw them together to make a thick piece of wood (about .5 - 1" thick), draw the approximate pattern onto it and cut it out with a jig or band saw. Just be careful not to put the screws in a place where the saw will cut.

How about using a piece of scrap wood, 2X6, 2X8, 2X10 ...etc. Any construction site where they are building houses will have tons in a dumpster.This will be 1 1/2" thick

2 x 8 or 2 x 10 would do it. Without running through the snow to measure the thing, I'd say it's roughly 6" at its widest area.

Thanks Zombie F and Shadow, I'll let you know how the progress goes when I start this.. Happy Haunting :)
