Uhh, Honey...i used your [insert object]

[joeranger]

Ok, So I used my wife's yoga matt for EOD (hurtlocker) suits. She was upset, but, doesn't do much yoga.
Now I used her Chandon Champagne bucket for an Avatar mask, she does drink champagne. I might be in some trouble.
Anyone else want to fess up...

Unable to pressure cast but still occasionally needing a lil part here or there to be replicated- the next best thing is something to VIBRATE the bubbles out of a mold before setup.

Nuff said?:rolleyes

Just don't get caught sittin' in the garage with the mold de-bubble-ator and a cup of white liquid resin. It's tough 'splainin' to the missus.

Well, if it's not mine, I'd ask... of course, that's just me.

Great thread

I used my wife's soup ladle to fashion a metal fire spitting "prop" for an episode of Kenny vs. Spenny titled cockfight.

Such a play on words....and I still havent replaced that ladle yet.

Every time we have soup I am in hot water....lol

I broke my wife's hair-cutting scissors while cutting the mold supports for a Vader helmet and I am still hearing about it!

I'm also pretty guilty of this! Although mine are usually display problems, I'm always looking for something of a specific size or shape to be the perfect item to hold or support something. I always get that "oh just take it...." look from her. :lol

 

[Dung0beetle]

I have 3 pair of useless scissors hiding in my toolbox. I also used a knob from the oven for something, I can't remember what for.
The kids did it, I swear!angel

My mom mysteriously needs new sealable containers and at least once i have used parts off our spare vac for odds and ends. i'm safe until she needs to use it. i know i've done others but they don't spring to mind.

Haha, great thread!

Clear hairbands to hold down my TK shoulder straps, Hair dryer (aka heat gun) LOTS of tupperware, oh and I may have (accidentally) drilled a hole in the couch once

With my ex-wife, I've lost count.
On the other hand, my girlfriend is into props as much as me so she is the one constantly using stuff around the house.

whilst building my vibro axe, her hairbrush mysteriously disappeared from the bathroom, serves her right for leaving it there :confused

she still doesn't know where it went :love

the end was the perfect size and profile for the part under the yamaha engine cover.

a completely g rated alternative is these princess or camoflauge wands in the party section at walmart for 3 bucks. i used 2 for my jetpack, and burned out 4 figuring out the wiring. they spin and light up, and while they spin they vibrate.

There you go, giving me ideas to get myself in trouble with. :love

 

[Forestmoonstudio]

I cut out the metal speaker screens out of my wifes CD player. I used the screen on my Vader mask.
Mesh to hide my eyes through the lenses and mesh backing behind the mouth grill.
She was ready to kill me but she knows it is for the cause.

WIN! You're my hero.

I've only ever used pie tins, tupperware, hair bands, make-up brushes and the like. I'm such a noob.
