PERSONAL
AQUAPLANE PLANS
This 200lbs powered aquaplane features a removable control stand which can be lashed flat on the deck for car-topping or trailing. To turn, you simply shift your weight in the direction you want the craft to go - the more you lean, the sharper the turn. A 15 hp outboard will allow you to skim over the water at 30 mph. Manual steering is also possible when moving at speeds too slow for ballast steering. |

KIDS HELICOPTER
RIDE PLANS
The copter revolves around a 28 foot circle at up to 15 mph and can go up, down, hover and fly around. Even if the motor is cut off, the centrifugal force keeps the copper moving and comes to a safe stop. It is very stable as a result of the counterweight and low slung seat. Construction is based on a seat which hangs on one end of a boom which is free to swing in a plane parallel to the boom, which itself pivots on the mounting post while the post turns on a vertical axis. |

It's yours for the price of a little lumber, three hanks of clothesline and a minimum of effort. Use it indoors or on the lawn, porch or terrace. In place of springs or the customary webbing, you use plastic clothesline, durable and inexpensive. Material list and step by step construction plans included. |
