Grave Digger Animatronic (Getting Started)

My 'rough draft' of what will be an animatronic gravedigger for our halloween yard display. This is using a windshield wiper motor from monsterguts.com, powered by a 5v 2.5amp power supply.

PVC is cheap. Motor & Power supply were probably $30. Then just clothes and a head, and i put a lantern that it is lifting up and down.
