This is my first Ghost trap build, I'm making it out of 1/4" MDF. The trap is going to be a cross between the Movie trap and the RGB trap. It's going to have the body of an RGB trap and elements from the movie trap. It's not glued or anything, just carefully placed to show what it's going to look like when finished. Comments are welcome. 04/16/10 Update: I just mounted the handle to the trap. 04/18/10 Update: I just cut and fitted the top panel. 04/22/10 Update: I just mounted a tap measure clip to the bottom of the trap pedal. I got the idea from the Ghost Trap forum. It actually works pretty well, now I just have to replace the rubber feet. I also installed the male end of a Foster Quick Connector to the back of my Ghost trap. 05/03/10 Update: I had to rebuild my ghost trap. The wood glue didn't hold well, and it started to come apart. The new trap I put together last night is held together by screws anchored to pieces of wood inside. It's going to be shorter than the first version, which was a foot long. This one is 11 inches long. I've attached all the parts, now I just need to paint it. 09/11/10 Upda: I painted my trap a few months ago, but forgot to post pics. Last week I made an addition to the trap. The addition is based on the Fast Trap upgrade from the Ghostbusters game. It took my a while to figure out how to mount the silly thing without dismantelling the whole trap. Now I just have to add wheels.
