I want to make a fun hands off Halloween dispensing system, but I don’t have cool tools or motors and things. What could you suggest that is more fun than just a chute that I could make easily? We have a second story window and a tree on the lawn diagonally from the window. (Haunted mansion theme)
Hi Jennifer! We honestly started with nothing when we did our 2020 dispenser and have slowly accumulated. Lol. The pvc came from Home Depot and the motors came from Amazon. Everything else we found in the garage or around the house. We're actually thinking of expanding to the second story as well this year, and are in the early stages of planning. Our goal (eventually) is to fully automate it so it doesn't need to be loaded. That would be really cool. You could use the potential energy of the second story to power something else. Or with the tree, I picture a zipline from the second story window that dumps candy at the tree into a chute that is delivered to the kids. Good luck and keep me posted!
What fun! Such lucky kids!
Thank you!
Wish you were in our neighborhood so we could come down and Trick or Treat!
We wish you were too! You can always come visit!
Love it. Mom and Dad looking great. what's in store for next year?
Thank you! I don't know, but we'd really like to fully automate so candy loads and delivers on its own. That's the next level. Lol.
