Heya guys, the wife is going to let me start building the first of August, and this year I'm doing my first moving props. I'm going to start with the simplest prop first: I want a "body" to sit up out of a tomb that has fog rolling out of the top of it. I'm not going to try to learn about pneumatics this year, so everything needs to be motors, bungies, and springs. 
What I'm thinking is just having a torso in weathered clothing from the thrift store (plan on spraying pool acid from a spray bottle, and burying the clothes for a week or so), so what I need is an idea of what sort of framework to build. I *know* someone's done something like this before, so that's why I'm asking. Don't want to reinvent the wheel!
