Axworthy Ghosts
Basement Demo/Outdoor demo
Here are a couple of demo moments from the project. On the first part of the video my ghost was just a cardboard ice cream cup with some cheesecloth over it for goofy effect. You can see that the wheel needs to be farther away from the post so the cheesecloth doesn’t catch on it as it goes around.
In the second part, I hooked up a ghost I picked up at CVS thinking it might be a good unit to model my actual ghosts after. And it was! The video shows the low-height initial outdoor tests with the one ghost attached. You can see that the ghost makes the line bounce quite a bit over the long stretch nearest the house. This was enough to cause the line to intermittently come off the wheels. I think I removed 6” or more of line to make it more taut from where it is in the video. At this point I was running the demo at about 5’ off the ground rather than full height just so I could work out the bugs without having to climb up and down a ladder a bunch of times.
