New Project: Graveyard Sign
I had an idea the other day to build a sign for the haunt. I'm thinking 4x4s for the post and cross beam and some 1x4s for the sign. Either a noose rope or some chain to hold the sign to the post. I have an empty water meter hole on the corner of the lot that should be suitable to insert the post into and secure it from tipping over. I'll run an extension cord to the sign to power a flicker bulb fixture.
