What this video covers
Stiltbeast Studios walks through how to build a convincing side-of-beef prop for under $100 using everyday materials like pool noodles, pallet wrap, spray paint, and caulking. The technique is adaptable beyond beef — creators can modify the approach to produce pig carcasses or other animal forms. The result is a versatile hanging prop suited for butcher scenes, freezer rooms, or hillbilly murder-shack setups. At roughly 37 minutes, the video provides enough depth for even first-time prop builders to follow along.
