CONSTRUCTION  PICTURES
This was the beginning of the car
port/haunted house frame
construction.  I used aluminized
exhaust tubing ($20 for an 8' stick)
and a pipe bender to make all of the
bends.  A 110v wirefeed welder
made all of the connections solid.
This is truly fast-forwarded.  It took
a long time to build this.  Each post
is attached by drilling two holes in
the concrete. Then, using Rockite as
a filler/cement, I installed two bolts
with the heads into the Rockite so
that I could use two custom made
"L" brackets, weld them to the post
and then use a nut and washer to
tighten them to the driveway.
Starting to cover the carport in 6 mil
contractor plastic.  I used thin wood
slats taped to the poles so that I
could staple the plastic to the wood,
then used duct tape to cover the
staples so that it would be stronger
against wind and rain so it wouldn't
leak.  
Almost done with the outside plastic.
 What a chore.  It rained so much
and took so long to do.  Funny
thing, Duct tape doesn't stick to
plastic when it's wet!  A hair
blow-drier and towel came in handy!
Beginning the inside wall
construction.  
The finished product on Halloween
day.  The haunted house is over 400
sq. ft., not including the yard
decorations and the airblown
inflatable.  Too bad it rained so
much on Halloween, luckily it
cleared up a bit for the night!
