Hi, just thought I would run this by everyone. I have made a sliding die box, more like the coin sliding coin box. I have used square pieces for the slide instead of the normal round. I have made multiples of the squares for different pictures, such as...a ghost, a Santa, a pumpkin and any other item need in a personal touch routine. On the front doors of the unit I put magnetic tabs so I can change the design for the different seasons or type of show I will be doing. Than I made a stand that it will sit on with a backing that is also interchangeable. I picked up some magnetic printer sheets and made different scenes for the doors which stick to the magnetic tabs.
I just got tired of purchasing the same product with different themes, so I thought this would be better and take up less room. And it is very versatile. What do you think? Thanks Chris |

Great idea, Chris. You have developed an inter-changeable prop and practical too.

Thanks James,
I have finished the first one and now I am going to work on the "Mis Made, Skeleton, Santa, Woman, and others. Each of the blocks will have a magnetic hold and a ledge to keep the inserts from dropping when the blocks are dropped in. |

Any photo for us to view, wa-na-be? We can then appreciate the work you have done. The inter-changing feature is really a great idea.

I'll get my camera back from my daughter, she just started college and wanted to use it. I don't have a website so all I know I can do is PM the pictures. I'll try for this weekend.
Thanks for the interest, plus if you have any ideas after seeing it by all means let me know. Chris |

Chris, those are nice work. Inter-changing to fit the occasion is brilliant and using the same prop. Really cost savings too as you don't have to buy the same prop again.
