I had a spring laying around that fit perfect inside 1/2" PVC, so I used about a 5" spring between two small sections of PVC. With this setup the whipping movement is really adjustable and when I like the motion I'll install a small bolt. I lost a little motion because I wanted the legs to move also so I ran PVC up each leg so it looks like the prop is kicking.

I have to find some straps for his arms and legs and a cool mask. Lotsa work left to do especially with the lighting and controllers, I want to vary the speed of the motion with a speed controller so he starts slow and has convulsions 2/3 of the way through. I'm also moding the fog controller so I can control it with the Prop-1

What I really need now is some leather strips about 2" wide by 10' for the chest, arms and legs. I can't bring myself to buy a belt and cut it to pieces .

Or anybody have any ideas for electric chair restraints??

Most Goodwill stores sell belts for $1 each. I'd go that route.
