I live I. The desert and if it's not blowing all day then as soon as the sun goes down the wind starts. While making some wooden tombstones I used metal pipe straps. when I pulled out my foam ones I decided to try and use the same straps on them. So working quickly I put a huge drop of hot glue on the back of the tombstone and quickly drilled screws in through the strap. I did one on both the right and left, top and bottom. I them just tapped rebar size garden stakes into the ground. They didn't move an inch. I hope that I explained it well enough.

I hate when they fall or blow over.<br /><br />Dale, The Hunchback would be cool, even if just made the round base.<br /><br />John, I never made the Forgotton Prisoner or the old witch kits as a kid. Because they weren't part of a movie I thought they didn't belong in my collection. Regret that thinking now.Dave Lowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697644776554772725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14250813.post-54063338698206424842011-10-06T09:36:15.821-07:002011-10-06T09:36:15.821-07:00Awesome!!!Awesome!!!Tednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14250813.post-82578762667709866502011-10-04T21:57:04.339-07:002011-10-04T21:57:04.339-07:00Great idea, Dave, and fantastic execution.
