Nice prop!

2018 and no comments? It looks great to me, I will definitely be adding something like this to my Haunt. I wonder if the noise occurs when the voltage is lower than the wiper motor is expecting? Thanks for the upload and idea.

I actually took the prop apart for parts. Keep me posted on how you make out.

eggggcellent!

Where did you get the shaft extender? And thanks for posting this. I have a great application in mind. Thanks.

[@vladselsky5427]

You mean the drawer slide? Home Depot/Lowes. What project you have in mind?

[@Thegaseff]

@@vladselsky5427 No, I am referring to the extension on the motor. Thanks. I am thinking of using the mechanism you demonstrated to move a stroller back and forth.

Vlad, do you have a tutorial on how you made the sliding mechanism?

[@vladselsky5427]

I thought video showed that well. Are you stuck somewhere?

[@chrismalkoski6846]

@vladselsky5427 Not stuck, I guess I was wondering... as far as the drawer slide, can you use any size depending on your prop? I am thinking that I would want my prop to move more forward. Now I am brand new to building props, so I am sorry if I sound nieve... but I am lol. Then I would just have to adjust the length of the metal rods to facilitate for how much distance I want it to travel correct?

[@stebstebanesier6205]

The longer the draw slide. the longer the travel, or, throw it will have. Then just play around with the two linkage bars to get the most throw possible. For me anyway, the funnest part of building props is problem solving. Just remember, when the linkage bar that's attached to the motor is 180* away from the draw glide, and the draw glide should be fully collapsed. I hope this isn't too confusing @@chrismalkoski6846
