One day... that will be me with my (future) kids...

Those supports...and the wooden cross ties...wow. It's fine for a very young child, but no one too heavy. Gotta respect this guy though.

This inspires me to construct my own coaster for myself! I will make it all mine!

 

[I305Evan]

Is it bad I've already started designing this project of mine...?

If anyone can get a shot of parenting done right at the park, post it here!

This request is WAY too open-ended. But I'll see what I can come up with. :evilgrin:

That's really neat, what a dad!

First thing I thought of is the coaster ride utilizing a natural hill made by the protagonist in Herman Wouk's City Boy. It wasn't circular, though, IIRC. This seems engineered quite well to give an exciting ride and then slow to a stop at the base of the hill again. I'm impressed.

Wow, thanks for sharing!

. . . I did make my kids their own teacup style merry-go-round using exhaust pipe, unercoated plywood and industial bearings.

You just need to make a few more, then attach them all together
