Pirate Pilings for Crowd Control
Every good prop deserves a certain amount of security and protection from little hands and the over-curious. To keep with the them, I visited a wood supply shop and had them slice a few logs into various lengths. I used a nail gun (could use screws as well) - no glue in case you recycle these in the fire pit - to secure them together in bundles of 3. | Taking some remaining ship's rope from eBay, I lashed them together for the "nautical look". | |
---|---|---|
To secure them in the lawn, I took 18" lengths of rebar, from Home Depot and hammered them into the ground. The piling bundles simply slide over the rebar and remain secure. | Add additional rope to keep the crowd back! | Spooky cloth and perched black birds help compliment the look. |
Keeping the Cannon (and patrons) safe! |
