			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want to make something really special for Halloween? And by special I mean extra gross. Checkout <a href="http://www.halloween-haunted-house.com/how.html#guts">Gothic Nightmare</a>&#8216;s prop tutorials, particularly the one with the twitching legs, complete with blood red innards.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21010" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/motorized-twitching-guts-1.jpg" alt="motorized twitching guts 1" width="600" height="273" title="motorized twitching guts 1 photo" /></p>
<p>I sure am glad I wasn&#8217;t eating when I saw this, or else I might have puked my own insides out. Actually I think I still might disembowel myself so let&#8217;s get this over with. Gothic Nightmare says that the intestines and alien worm-looking stuff are made of expanding spray foam insulation that&#8217;s been spray painted. &#8220;Bits of twine and stuff&#8221; were added for the veins. I don&#8217;t want to know what the &#8220;stuff&#8221; might be. Then a pair of jeans was stuffed with plastic to fill it out.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21011" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/motorized-twitching-guts-2.jpg" alt="motorized twitching guts 2" width="600" height="299" title="motorized twitching guts 2 photo" /></p>
<p>A makeshift &#8220;twitcher&#8221; made of an ice crusher&#8217;s motor, some levers and wood was then attached to one of its legs. The end product is a monstrosity that even the undead would find unsettling:</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="600" height="361" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid115.photobucket.com/albums/n296/steve_n_tammy/twitchy.flv" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="361" src="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid115.photobucket.com/albums/n296/steve_n_tammy/twitchy.flv" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent"></embed></object></p>
<p>There&#8217;s a joke in here somewhere between that sick squeaking sound and the twitching, but I&#8217;m too nauseated to make it up. But if you think it&#8217;s awesome and all,  the disgustingly talented unnamed prop maker recommends that you use a slower motor &#8211; like a wiper motor &#8211; to power the leg, because the ice crusher&#8217;s motor made the leg move too fast so it had to be slowed down with a dimmer switch. I need to lie down.</p>
