Six year olds homework – time to get the welder out
Six year old daughter has just come homework with this terms homework project.
Build a 3d model of a fair ground ride – Dads are encouraged to help!!!
I've still got 20m of chassis tubing in the garage
And 4 weeks to build it with her.

Hi Paul.
I've been tidying up the garage today and have various bits and bobs of stainless and ally tube in various diameters if they are any help with
your project. Lots of nuts and bolts if you need them. Even some offcuts of ally honeycomb.
If a job's worth doing then make sure it's hopelessly over-engineered I say!
I'm ten minutes from Ravenshead if you are interested.
What fairground ride are you planning on building?
Geoff.

model implies not full sized ......
but how cool would you be if you made a '1/2' sized model that small children could ride ?????
(check out insurance before some other parent's kid has an accident and they sue you)
