Here's what I have:

• One can each of Green and Yellow spray paint. The yellow is a buttery yellow color, and not the bright yellow. These were the only colors I could find that worked with plastic.
• One large roll of the plastic wrap used for shipping boxes.
• One box of black contractor trashbags.
• A roll of thin gage wire. It's like floral wire, only it's in a roll and not green.

I have a few lengths of 1/2" PVC pipe that I will test out tonight. I'll do a test run using the PVC to see if it looks ok or not. I'll either have the pictures posted later tonight or sometime tomorrow.

CJd - I am not planning on participating. I might - but don't bet on it.

Sounds to me like we can skip something electronic for the day. Most of us want to try cornstalks, and we all need tombstones. Somebody does need to yell 'focus' at us now and then. There is only 2 weeks left to decide, and we are still discussing cornstalk supplies. Electronics would be a day on its own due to the complexity.

We may need to experiment with different cornstalk methods, which sounds easy but may need more time than you would think.

If we want to add one other project, than a simple static one would be best. Not Sams, not everybody wants one of those. I can make that on my own following other people's directions. If see if I can come up with something by this weekend.

Any thoughts?

Maybe Haunted Bayou can swing by and pick them up or I can drop them off to her.

[Haunted Bayou]

Either is ok with me. I need to look at my schedule to see if I'll be in your area when I am working.

[Cole&Jacksdad]

Just let me know and give me a couple of days heads up so I can get the bamboo.

[Haunted Bayou]

I went to 2 dollar trees...no bamboo at either.

The only thing I could find were some sad pieces that were too short. So far I am not diggin' the cornstalk making. I think I'll be helping with those and working on something else for me.
