  • We make an awesome hanging cage prop from a 55 gallon barrel. simple project that takes about three - four hours to do- great to put in trees during Halloween or decorate your haunted house.
    This cage was modeled after the cages seen in Hocus Pocus.

    Great work very inspired.
    For anyone wanting to recreate the painted bars... if making horizontal brown shadows on the outside, then make vertical shadows on the interior. Very picky I know - habit of being an artist.

    • @StiltbeastStudios
      @StiltbeastStudios  2 года назад

      not if there are strips inside and out as opposed to just one set on the outside, I was following the tower of london example which was made by coopers with barrel rings, they doubled up inside and out. but either way works.

  • @rekzors
    @rekzors 11 месяцев назад +1

    This is really awesome. For the time invested this looks great, would be perfect if you were bashing a bunch out for a set. I think the one quick thing that would help if a really light sporadic sponging of either dark brown or a steel paint. I find it helps sell simulated rust really well giving that flaked off effect without having too spend forever trying to use chipping medium or something similar.

    • @StiltbeastStudios
      @StiltbeastStudios  10 месяцев назад

      yeah we made six of them for a set, they needed to be UV actually.

    We made 4 of those out of steel. 3/16 2” flat stock as the main material, got a machine shop to roll lengths of it into 36” hoops. Then we welded the entire thing up into a 6’ tall cage with a little entry door. Welded an eyelet onto the top to hang it from chainfalls and the whole thing was strong enough to put actors in.

    Great video and I loved the idea so much that I tried it. For the top of the cage, instead of cutting the pieces and drilling a hole through them, I left them in tact. I put some heavy weight on the bottom of the barrel, suspended it, and used the heat gun to elongate those pieces to get the bends out of them.

    • @StiltbeastStudios

    THANK YOU! This is really awesome! I found your brain in a jar video (also awesome) so decided to see what else you posted out here in cyberspace. I wasn't exactly thinking of the GIANT cage when I first clicked on this, but wow, so glad I watched. This is truly brilliant (along with the brain video). I'm wondering if you think I can scale this down to use for a much smaller version. I ask because my husband--who knew all those tools he has--passed a couple of years ago and while I think he has many of the tools you have, I'm certainly new to using any of them (but I'm learning). I thought to try smaller not only because I'm unsure I can handle the larger one by myself, but also for the beginner in me. I'm finally coming out of the dark and oddly wanting to plan a Halloween party for next year for my family so I'm looking for a lot of Hocus Pocus ideas. I've already re-created Winnifred's spell book and am quite proud of how it turned out (very authentic--even added content to the pages!). I plan to try my hand at the black candle which looks easy, but this cage is off-the-charts cool. Thanks!

    • @StiltbeastStudios
