Model T Ambulance or Rugged transport!

ok, so using our two largest crates plus a new larger one... I came up with the following interchangable inserts. All will be cast in metal.

jade statue
rifles
dino eggs/nest
furs
 large leg bone
dino skull
ark
mummy
terracotta warrior

Suggestions?

[Hammers]

gold bars
time bomb
mechanical parts
contraband hootch
tommy guns
chocolat bars

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Maltese falcon
little Cthulhu statue
little golem
voodoo puppet

Abducted child (like in case of baby Lindberg)

...or is that too macabre?

Maltese falcon

So that's where it got to...

Arc of the Covenant
Shankara stones
Grails
Marmalade sandwiches

I think that´s a bit over the top, indeed. Although I have to say I´m strangely less offended by the thought of a shapely damsel in distress (not necessarily, or preferably not!) in a box.

Dynamite
Stolen Egyptian Artefacts
Dracula
Paintings - Frames I suppose
Nefarious Devices constructed by the Evil Doctor - death ray, neuroswargler etc

You are right. Bad taste given what's going on arround us all the time. Sorry. I was thinking of that particular case from the 30ies.

Egads, this is quite a list!


Tell you what, these are all good ideas...and a packet of bits with all of these would be very affordable if they were all cast in metal and put on small sprues.  

I can probably start a few of these ideas..but if anyone wants to sculpt/create/master something and contribute let me know!   Anyone who contributes a piece will get a couple of full sets and some crates.  Their name and handicraft will be credited on an insert in the package.  Since these are all small, I can probably get all of them and more on one spin mold.

Any takers?  I'll start on all the archeology items....

I'd be interested. I could do hootch and gold bars and some mechanical doohicky. I am a little hazy on which material is allowed for masters. Will polystyrene work for example? Also what are the dimensions of the crate? I guess I better order one.

I can post interior crate dimensions and pics.  I'll get to that this week.

Materials are:
Greenstuff, brownstuff, procreate, aluminum, brass   (for masters ready to cast)

Plastic (I need to convert to metal)  So if plastic is used, the entire piece needs to be all plastic..no wire pegs, etc so that it burns away completely.

Plastic masters, we use a lost wax method to make a brass master.  The plastic original is burned up in the process...but it works great, and we have yet to ever get a bad master.

OK, great! I've done my hootch crates with standig bottles in polystyrene rod and tube before but I think I'll do them in brass this time, since I need to ship them.

This is going to be fun!

Did you post the dimensions anywhere? I wouldn't mind having a go at sculpting a few items.
